Sunsat is a micro-satellite built by post-graduate engineering
students in the Electronic Systems Laboratory, in the Department
of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of
Stellenbosch.It was launched in 1999 on a Delta II Launch
Vehicle. Payloads include NASA experiments, Radio Amateur
communications, a high resolution imager, precision attitude
control, and school experiments. SUNSAT was launched on the 11th
attempt at 10h29:45 GMT on 23 February 1999 and went out of
service on January 19, 2001 due to hardware failure.
