MIDSTAR OVERVIEW • MIDSTAR1 will serve as a standard bus which will house several experiments. It will also collect data from each experiment and send the data to the ground station to be processed. It is the first in an intended line of future buses.
MISSION STATEMENT • The mission of MidSTAR I is to design a general-purpose satellite bus capable of supporting a variety of space missions by easily accommodating a wide range of space experiments and instruments. The integration of the experiments with the satellite bus must be accomplished with minimal changes to the satellite bus design.
