As part of the launch of the State Corporation "Roscosmos" of the spacecraft "Aist-2T" N.1 и N.2 on the launch vehicle "Soyuz 2.1b" with the upper stage "Fregat" at the end of 2025 from the Vostochny Cosmodrome, 17 deployers designed by "Aerospace Capital" will be launched as part of the rideshare. The Aerospace deployers succesfully integrated 33 spacecraft from Russian and foreign commercial customers. As part of this mission, various formats of spacecraft will separate in orbit - ranging from pico-satellites to 16U CubeSats.

We are sharing information and photos about some satellites that will soon be launched into orbit.

For the scientific and educational project "Space-π" by the FASIE, 4 satellites will be launched in 4 Aerospace 16U deployers:

1. The "Lobachevsky" satellite, a 16U CubeSat created by the Nizhny Novgorod State University named after N. I. Lobachevsky, is equipped with multispectral and hyperspectral cameras for agroecology tasks, as well as an amateur FM repeater with an integrated hardware-software complex for testing memristive devices in space. The satellite is developed on the 16U platform by Geoscan.

2. The "Scorpion" satellite, a 16U CubeSat developed by the D. V. Skobeltzyn Institute of Nuclear Physics (NIIYaF MSU), contains equipment for space experiments related to space weather, microbiology, registration of extragalactic gamma-ray bursts and transients, as well as monitoring radiation and charged particle flows in low Earth orbit. The satellite is developed on the 16U platform "NILAKT DOSAAF".

3. The "Polytech Universe-6" satellite, a 16U CubeSat from Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, is designed to measure the level of electromagnetic radiation in various frequency ranges to create a model of the distribution of these levels and analyze the level of "electromagnetic pollution." The satellite is developed on the 16U platform by STC.

4. The "Aist-ST" satellite, a 16U CubeSat made by Samara National Research University named after Academic S.P. Korolev, aims to experimentally test radar equipment on a small spacecraft, as well as to study the rate of contamination of satellite elements by products from its own external atmosphere. The satellite is developed on the 16U platform by STC.

For STC, one more 16U satellite "CSTP-3.1" and 4 3U CubeSats have been integrated in the Aerospace deployers. Specifically:

• The "SM-3.1" and "ANSAT-1" satellites, 3U CubeSats designed for optical-electronic observation with high resolution, are intended for remote sensing of the Earth's surface in the optical range.
• The "SCH-619" and "VM-3.1" satellites, 3U CubeSats for radio-engineering monitoring, are designed to assess the current state of the electromagnetic field over a wide frequency range.

In the hybrid Aerospace Capital 12U deployer (2x3U + 1x6U), the following satellite and others has been integrated:

• The "Mule 4T" satellite, developed on the 3U platform by OKB5 for MKS LLC, is intended for conducting flight tests of components of the next-generation Cleon space platform for the Gonets space system. It will also be used for flight tests of a new form factor and delivery method for pico-satellites called TriSat, which are developed by OKB5. Out of the four pico-satellites, three are launched in the interests of private clients, including TriSat-2 (RUVDSSat1) for the hosting provider RUVDS, TriSat-3 (QUbeSat1) for Qatar University, while the fourth is for its own interests to further develop the format.

All of the above-mentioned and other satellites will be launched in deployers developed by the private space company "Aerospace Capital" as part of the "Aist-2T" N.1 и N.2 mission using the Soyuz-2 rocket and the Fregat upper stage. The mission operator is the State Corporation "Roscosmos," and the head integrator for launching the secondary payload is the joint-stock company "Glavkosmos" (part of the State Corporation "Roscosmos"), which provides launch services.

We are preparing for the mission, stay tuned for our updates.
