Veery 0E [Care Weather Technologies]
Veery 0E (Veery v0.3, Fledgling Veery Ectobius) is a picosatellite developed by Care Weather Technologies to the 1U CubeSat form factor as a technology demonstrator for their planned Veery wind scatterometer satellites.
Ectobius will launch on the SpaceX Transporter 10 mission. After launch, it'll deploy its antenna and commission its radio, pointing sensors, and pointing actuators.
Ectobius' tests include fully radio data rate stress testing and radar detection of the Earth.
Ectobius will also be available to amateur radio operators to use as a mailbox, digipeater, and telemetering station for the study of cubesat thermals.
