In a statement, i-CATS explained that CubeSats are small satellites developed in standardised modular sizes, starting with a 10cm × 10cm × 10cm unit.
The university college noted that their compact structure, lower development costs, and shorter production cycles make CubeSats more accessible than conventional satellites, enabling wider participation in space research and innovation.
“Their growing application has expanded access to space technology, allowing universities and young innovators to contribute meaningfully to the global space ecosystem,” said i-CATS.
At the same time, the university college is developing applications and solutions using data science and artificial intelligence to help address real-world problems.
