Rapid development of Earth Observation technology and increasing awareness of global challenges has increased the need for lean and agile space missions and calls for a new generation of engineers to design them. Miniaturization of sensor technology and electronics has decreased the weight of a satellite, which has brought launch prices to the reach of educational institutes and smaller countries. This is recognized in many universities where nanosatellite projects are used for education. A standard, called CubeSat, has been driving the development and become the most popular development platform for university space projects [1].
