Abstract

PACE is the first university satellite built in Taiwan that is to be launched into space in 2011. Its mission focuses on the improvement of simulation models for nanosatellites in low-earth orbit and in particular on the in-orbit testing and performance evaluation of different methods for attitude determination and control. This paper presents the main features of the spacecraft design, reports on the qualification testing of the satellite, and outlines how the mission data will be used to support future nanosatellite designs.
