The communication between mur.sat and earth will be solved via amateur radio frequencies. As the signals of mur.sat will only be available for very short time periods on one spot, we will need a dense global GroundStationNetwork of sender/receiver stations. The single station should catch and collect the signal snippets and transmit them via Internet (TCP/IP) to the mur.at SpaceCenter in Graz. The thereby originating art piece will be visible in the Graz space center and online; of course all data will be available online and for free, published under a fitting GNU public licence that will ensure access to durable open public data. After a few weeks - probably 3 to 6 - the satellite will burn up during its re-entry in the earth atmosphere.

mur.sat - the mur.at satellite

In 2013 or later mur.at will launch its first satellite mursat1.

The main idea is to have public domain access to what we can perceive and realize in space.

Interorbital Systems offers its TubeSat personal satellite kit for aprox. USD 8,600 (launch inclusive). The satellite will occupy a LEO for a couple of weeks before burning in the atmosphere on reentry. This is a SpaceArt project kindly supported by BMUKK.

Before mursat will be sent to its LEO (lower earth orbit) somewhen in 2011, it has already been shown, in an exhibition taking place from December 3rd to 17th 2010 at ESC im LABOR, Graz. Until the end of the exhibition, the satellite's functionality was more or less fixed. With an additional payload of only 200 grams, we have to focus on a certain range of possibilites.

The People Involved

The team consists of about 15 people who come from different fields; although we see all fields of knowledge overlapping, we have our specialties - rather comming from developing concepts for art and programming, hardware development, amateur radio, fm radio, sound and video, ... what we share, is our curiosity.

Get to know the PeopleInvolved - artists, tech developers, supporters.

Want to get in touch? Contact us at sat AT mur DOT at!

The Actions

  • MeetingSchedule: dates for the upcomming meetings and minutes from the meetings held

  • the exhibition: what happened during the exhibition in december 2010.

  • balloon testflights: how to test some basic communication between the satellite and the ground

  • SpaceCenter: once mursat is launched into orbit, we are going to follow and accompany it on its travel.

The Ground Station Network

There will be an GroundStationNetwork of people around the world that will follow mur.sat on its mission. Please consider our OpenInvitation to participate!

The Space Center

Once mursat is launched into orbit, we are going to follow and accompany it on its travel in our SpaceCenter.

Satellite Listening and Sonifications

We start with a set of sessions round SatelliteListening in June 2011.
