-   * We simply do [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CubeSat |cubesats]] and related activities. +During the last twenty years we(students at [[http://es.aau.dk |  ES]]) have constructed, build, launched and operated five cubesats with a huge succes.
-   * Up until now we have since 2003 launched 5 cubesats (see in menu) and participated in some other space satellite projects+
  
-But the most important thing is we are since spring 2023 started working on [[doku.php?id=mission aausat6]]

-==== About us ==== 
  
-Welcome to our Studentspace website at [[AAUinfo | Aalborg University - Denmark]] 
    
-Students at AAU has since 2001 designed, build, launched and operated five [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CubeSat |cubesats]].  
-{{ https://studentspace.aau.dk/pictmovie/studentspace.mp4}} 
  
-Our cubesat adventure came to life around 2000. Student had been watching the development of [[https://da.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%98rsted-satellitten | Ørsted]] - the first danish satellite - launched in 1999.\\ +** //citing Buzz Lightyear: // "To infinity and beyond"**   
-Inspired by [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Twiggs | Bob Twiggs]] USA - he did invent fhe cubesat standard - our students just required [[https://es.aau.dk | Dep of Electronic Systems]]. So the cubesat adventure did start late 2000.\\ + 
-Our first cubesat - AAU CUBESAT - was built in less than two years and was on the very first cubesat launch in 2003. Since then we have launched AAUSAT-II, AAUSAT3, AAUSAT4 and AAUSAT5. In addition we have had a number of payloads on other satellites and a number of parabolic flights and stratospheric ballon experiment.\\ +We will launch it to a polar LEO when it is ready for launch. Hopefully in a few years from now. 
-In addition to all the good hours and fun we have also seen Gomspace, Space Inventor and Satlab been raised in our labs before they moved out of AAU, buth still within 1,2,7km fra AAU. Now adays they employ more than 300 people and deliver missions, satellites and  subsystems to all continents. It has been fun to be a little part of their ongoing adventures. Nice to see our engineers are of high quality.+ 
 +stay tuned
  
-See our  [[spaceCV | student space CV here]] 
  
-**All in all some very nice, fruithfull and inspiring years.**
