Protosat 1 is likely a demonstration satellite to validate the systems and technology for E-Spaces sustainable satellite system consisting of up to 300,000 small satellites.
The identification of E-Space as the owner is tentative, based on the registration of the satellite with Rwanda, as the Rwandan government filed an application to the International Telecom Union for a 300,000 satellite constellation to be operated under Rwandan authority by E-Space.
No details are known.
