AbstractRecent technology advances, e.g. in microelectronics, nanotechnology, the fabrication of new materials, the development of new types of miniaturized instruments and communication systems at higher frequencies have opened up many new applications for Earth observation especially from micro-satellites.This paper is an attempt to summarize limitations and restrictions as well as potentials and future perspectives of micro-satellites of about 100kg and less.
