  24. Key Design Features of the Payload • Hazard Detection System • Lateral Vibrations In line System (LVIS) • Tesseract

  25. Payload Design and Dimensions Hazard Detection/Avionics Bay

  26. Payload Design and Dimensions LVIS

  27. Payload Design and Dimensions Tesseract • Designed to measure the magnitude of accumulated triboelectric charge on the surface of the nose cone at carious altitudes • Time stamp all altitudes and charge measurements to assist in post flight analysis

  28. Tesseract Payload Overview • The system can be broken down into three separate subsystems: • Voltmeter • CubeSat • Ground Station • The nose cone will be coated with MGM Chemicals 838 Total Ground Carbon Conductive Coating
