BeeSat-1 or Berlin Experimental and Educational Satellite 1, is a German satellite operated by the Technical University of Berlin. The spacecraft is a single unit CubeSat, which was designed to test systems intended for use on future spacecraft, including a new design of reaction wheel.[2][3] It has also been used for amateur radio, and is equipped with a small camera.[4]

BeeSat-1 was launched by a Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle, serial number C14, flying in the Core Alone, or PSLV-CA, configuration.[5] The launch took place from the First Launch Pad at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre, at 06:21 UTC on 23 September 2009.[6] BeeSat-1 was a secondary payload aboard the rocket, which deployed the Oceansat-2 satellite. Five other secondary payloads were flown aboard the rocket; SwissCube-1, UWE-2, ITU-pSat1, Rubin 9.1 and Rubin 9.2.[7][8]

BeeSat-1 is operating in a sun synchronous orbit with an apogee of 723 kilometres (449 mi), a perigee of 714 kilometres (444 mi) and 98.4 degrees of inclination to the equator. It has an orbital period of 99.16 minutes.[9] BeeSat-1 was designed to operate for at least twelve months,[2] and as of January 2011 it is still operational.[4]

Beesat (auch Tubsat 8) war ein Picosatellitenprojekt an der Technischen Universität Berlin. Beesat erfüllt den Cubesat-Standard und hat somit äußere Abmessungen von 10 × 10 × 10 cm³ und eine Gesamtmasse von weniger als 1 kg. Hauptziel des Projektes war die Weltraumverifizierung neu entwickelter, miniaturisierter Reaktionsräder und weiterer Technologien für Picosatelliten. So sollten Anwendungsfelder eröffnet und die speziellen Vorteile stark miniaturisierter Satelliten weiter nutzbar gemacht werden. Es folgte eine Serie weiterer Cubesats, beginnend mit Beesat-2 und Beesat-3.
