The deployment is the culmination of work that started with just a handful of undergraduates in 2011. Since then, a rotating group of students, which has now grown to around 90 in total, has kept the project on track: submitting proposals to NASA for launch, designing the spacecraft and making sure all of its systems work properly. The satellite was launched to the ISS in May, aboard an Antares rocket that lifted off from Wallops Island, Virginia.

Once EQUiSat exits the deployment pod, a small electrical pulse will burn through a thin wire that holds down that satellite's antennae. With the antennae deployed, EQUiSat will start transmitting data on its position and the status of its systems about 30 minutes post-deployment.
