CondoSat
This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (August 2019) |
A CondoSat is a satellite that supports separate operator payloads on the same spacecraft bus.[1][2]
By sharing the bus, the power system, the reflectors, and possibly other systems, costs for each operator could be lowered. The name derives from real estate condominiums.
