2004-05 & 2005-06 PROJECT AEGIS

• AEGIS (Air-launched Earth-observing Ground Information System)
• Primary Mission Objective:

– To design a low cost air-launch vehicle and micro satellite for the purpose of earth observation.

2006-07 & 2007-08 PROJECT NORSAT

• Primary Mission Objectives:

– To design a low cost micro satellite(s) mission for observation of Canada’s Arctic region, and the distribution of the information in a timely manner. – Space, launch and ground segments will be considered.

2008-09 & 2009-10 PROJECT CULPRIT

• CULPRIT: CARLETON UNIVERSITY LUNAR PENETRATION

REGOLITH INVESTIGATION TEAM

• Mission Statement: “To design a micro-penetrator to survive

lunar impact and report upon the characteristics of the sub- surface regolith “

• Mission Objectives:

Primary: To survive as a tech demo and report on impact characteristics Secondary: To detect water on the moon
