a czech stUdent's
satellite
The LASARsat satellite, which will launch into space this autumn on a Falcon 9 rocket, is the result of cooperation with Czech space companies. This small satellite will test laser applications for space traffic management, focusing on studying the effect of the Earth’s atmosphere on laser beams and their use in solving the space debris problem.

what's
inside
earthcam
A camera for Earth imaging and testing laser impact on its optics. Earthcam will assess how atmospheric changes affect laser influence on camera performance.
phOtOdiOdes
These detectors will measure how Earth's atmosphere alters a laser beam sent to LASARsat, providing key data for future laser use in space debris management.
retrOreflectOrs
Retroreflectors return the laser beam to Earth for precise atmospheric measurements, as the cubesat's limited photodiodes are complemented by advanced Earth-based instruments.
led diOdes
LED diodes on the satellite’s exterior will enhance precise and rapid optical tracking from Earth by increasing the satellite's brightness.
