MaSat-1 (from the words Magyar and Satellite, the first meaning "Hungarian" in Hungarian, maszat, pronounced IPA [ˈmɒsɒt], meaning "smudge") is the first indigenous Hungarian satellite, developed and built by students at the Technical University of Budapest. The 1U CubeSat-type satellite was launched into low Earth orbit on 13 February 2012. The satellite provided telemetric data as well as VGA resolution color images at the 70 cm amateur radio wavelength (437.345 MHz frequency) received at the tracking center at Budapest. The center was tested on 31 March 2009 with the help of Charles Simonyi on board the International Space Station. With the successful launch of MaSat-1, Hungary became the 47th nation to orbit a satellite.[4] Between 9 and 10 January 2015, the satellite reentered into the atmosphere.[5]

MaSat-1 — первый венгерский искусственный спутник Земли. Название происходит от сочетания слов Magyar (венг. Венгерский) и Satellite (с англ. — «Спутник»). Построен Будапештским университетом технологии и экономики. Был выведен на низкую околоземную орбиту 13 февраля 2012 года в первом полёте новой европейской .mw-parser-output .ts-comment-commentedText{border-bottom:1px dotted;cursor:help}@media(hover:none){.mw-parser-output .ts-comment-commentedText:not(.rt-commentedText){border-bottom:0;cursor:auto}}РН Вега с космодрома Куру. Спутник передаёт телеметрическую информацию на 70-см волне любительского диапазона на частоте 437,345 кГц, которая принимается центром слежения в Будапеште. Центр был протестирован с помощью Чарльза Симони 31 марта 2009 года во время его экспедиции на МКС[3].
