RESULTS
During the RadioSkaf experiment, data was
obtained for the development of future projects
to launch similar satellites as a part of youth
education programs. A procedure was developed
for assembling and launching satellites such as
RadioSkaf from the ISS during extravehicular
activity. Verification of technical solutions on
receiving radio signals from a chaotically
tumbling object, the operating lives of spacesuit
batteries, temperature changes in the spacesuit
without the operation of a temperature control
system, and other parameters, were completed.The Kedr amateur microsatellite was a new stage
of the RadioSkaf experiment, which began in 2006. This experiment was carried out within the
framework of the UNESCO student program on space education for the youth around the
world. Audio satellite recognition signals and photographs of the Earth were received by ham
radio stations on the ground in various countries.
