ArduSat is an Arduino based nanosatellite, based on the CubeSat standard. It contains a set of Arduino boards and sensors. The general public will be allowed to use these Arduinos and sensors for their own creative purposes while they are in space.[1]
ArduSat is created by NanoSatisfi LLC, an aerospace company which in the words of Phil Plait[2] has "the goal to democratize access to space" and was founded by 4 graduate students from the International Space University in 2012.
ArduSat is the first satellite which will provide such open access to the general public to space.[3] It is one of several crowdfunded satellites launched during the 2010s.[4] Currently the project evolved to the company Because Learning.[5]
