This is so cool!!! Props to author for the work, and also to ESA for allowing this kind of 'experimenting' :) .

Aside, it blew my mind that these cubesats are using sdcards for storage, is this intended for production or only now during the development phase? Is sdcard storage safe from electromagnetic interference in space, including solar wind?

Thanks ! Yeah, I really enjoyed working with the ESA. I think they mention the usage of a shield around the SEPP. But yeah, this architecture is pretty crazy for a satellite.

It's actually in production, but it's an experimental satellite, so not built to drive crazy missions for now.
