(C)JAXA


JAXA announced to the public November 7 that seven nano satellites are to be installed
in H-IIB Transfer Vehicle "KOUNOTORI" (HTV6) to be launched in December. Satellites are
only about 1U~3U in size and will conduct experiments aimed at realizing the space elevator
which is expected to facilitate the movement of the Earth and the Universe in the future.
It's the first time to launch in JAXA with seven satellites at a time.

Tancredo-1 [UbatubaSat] (Brazil)


Engineering Model of Tubesat Tancredo-1 under test at INPE
(C)BRAZILIAN SPACE

Tancredo-1 sera enviado para a ISS

The Tancredo-1 satellite, a small TubeSat built by middle school students
in Brazil, is scheduled to be sent to the International Space Station on
December 9, 2016. The satellite will be sent to the ISS inside the TuPOD
TubeSat deployer onboard JAXA’s KOUNOTORI6 cargo ship (HTV-6 mission).
The TuPOD is expected to be ejected into space by the J-SSOD satellite
deployer on December 19th and on December 21st, Tancredo-1 is expected
to  be finally ejected from the TuPOD into space. Once in space,
Tancredo-1 will start transmitting telemetry data.
