Touchdown: First Raspberry Pi-powered mini satellite finishes record flight

The time-tested mini satellite is small, light, and easy to use, so it’s easy to reduce your WiFi connection to the essentials. The mini is set to fly on August 28 after a 12-day journey to the International Space Station, and for now it’s up to you to figure out whether or not you’re willing to send a small satellite out on a date, at cost.

Google is also making another mini satellite that will be able to transmit images to the masses. The first of its kind will be a $50,000 UniShield satellite that will perform a short-haul flight from Centennial Pass to the Space Station on October 17. The second will be a $100,000 UniShield satellite that will perform a short-haul flight from Centennial Pass to the Space Station but will not be the same size as the first.

But don’t be surprised if Wi-Fi services aren’t far off, as the mini satellite will arrive at the Space Station on February 26. Whether you want to send an image of a beautiful sunset over the interiors of a zero gravity anomaly, or a scene from the blockbuster Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the mini satellite will be able to do what it does best.
