The XORBIT Program
Accelerated Space programme for Universities
Hands-on training to define the mission and design, assemble, integrate, and validate real subsystems of a fully functional 3U CubeSat
Inspire students to pursue careers in space engineering and instrumentation
Empowering students with cutting-edge skills in satellite design, development, and operations
Full-cycle CubeSat mission development for universities
HEX20 has so far sold 8 units to customers HEX20 together with LASP at CU Boulder and NCU Taiwan are teaming up to launch an innovative hardware focused training program.
