TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION: We have raised the full amount for our mission. $16625USD has been paid to Interorbital Systems for the launch (Here is the Launch Manifest: scroll to bottom, our launch is under Dave Cote). Launch is scheduled for summer 2018. Also, components of the cubesat have been purchased, totalling approximately $14000USD, and have been built by Matt Lippert, our technician at AFIT (Air Force Institute of Technology).

OUR CUBESAT CAPABILITIES: Ionized radiation: we have a scintillation counter that enables us to measure the various radiation in our satellite's environment. This is significant as it enables us to detect high energy particles, radiation, and other phenomenon.

Electromagnetism: we have the ability to detect EM, which is commonly measured in higher relative amounts during UFO encounters.

Cameras: we will use two cameras with parabolic lenses, giving us a clear 360 degree view around our satellite. We have removed the IR filters to allow us to capture more spectral range.

Electromagnetic detection and imagery will give us enough to verify high energy emitting objects in space. It is VERY IMPORTANT in our mission to be able to correlate multiple data points in our detection of phenomena: if we get anomolous craft or objects in our imagery, we can match that up against any changes in EM and radiation. This will go a long way to help in investigating UFO/UAP.

NOW, A BIT ON DISCLOSURE: For the past 70 years, the topic of extraterrestrial intelligent beings and UFO's has been controversial, if not ridiculed. Despite many sightings and events, government, military and media have made a strong attempt to discredit the idea of extraterrestrial "aliens". And in the face of their apparent "disbelief" of the topic, the same military and governments have spent huge amounts of money secretly studying these "ridiculous" UFO's and aliens. Thanks to freedom of information, and the actions of many with first hand experience, thousands of documents, witness testimony and data have surfaced, making the ridicule posed on ufology by media and governments seem staged and forced, with a very secret intent.

To name a few reasons why this topic is important, and why it must be subjected to rigorous scientific study:

1) Countries are beginning to release highly classified documents proving their governments interest in aliens and UFO's.

2) Hundreds of highly credible witnesses have come forward with testimony that at least some UFO's are verifiable alien technology. These witnesses

include a former Canadian Defense Minister, numerous astronauts, high ranking US military officials, pilots, ... Well, I could go on and on, but instead

I will provide a few links for those of you interested in learning more:

What our project aims to do, is to use a low orbit satellite, controlled by us individuals, to study potential objects that emit high energy radiation.

Maybe we'll get data readings and pictures of solar-flare caused auroras. Maybe we'll capture images of some very interesting meteors. And maybe we'll actually capture a verifiable craft. All we can do is try, and by doing this our way, we can open-source the data to you, the individuals.
