Proposal of Nano-satellite Environment Test Center

• Center dedicated for environment test of nano-satellites

– Carry out all the test necessary for nano-satellites or

components of 50cmx50cmx50cm、50kg

– Provide a quick test place for prototypes developed by local

industries

– One-stop-service for space environment test

Operation rate of these machines strongly depends on the H2A

piggy back program. In 2014, four H2A rockets were launched.

Half of the satellite developers using H2A piggy back rides in

2014 conducted tests at CeNT.
