About

The University Nanosat Program is a joint program between the Air Force Research Laboratory's Space Vehicles Directorate (AFRL/RV), AFOSR and the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA).

The objective of the program is to train tomorrow's space professionals by providing a rigorous, two year, concept-to-flight-ready spacecraft competition for U. S. higher education institutions and to enable small satellite research and development (R&D), integration and flight test.
