Mission

The primary payload of UniCubeSat is the in orbit test of the gravity gradient attitude stabilization system. This is why it is referred to as the UniCubeSat-GG (Gravity Gradient). The design features two symmetrical booms that unfold from the geometric center of the satellite to the outside. A small box is installed on the tips of both rigid arms. In the deployed configuration, the distance between the two tip masses is about 1 m.
