The purpose of the CubeSat development is to define a standard bus that can be used by anyone needing a simple picosatellite. Defining a standard bus, developing standard hardware components using commercial off the shelf components and a standard spacecraft frame will simplify the development of picosatellites. The CubeSat development will provide a standard spacecraft frame, a spacecraft controller, radio transceiver, attitude determination and control, solar cells, batteries, and an interface for a payload. The developer needs only to concentrate on the payload.
