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 ProjectDescription for background information and motivation to develop mursat.
The TubeSatKit has finally arrived (see SpaceOdyssey2010 for more details).

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.

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 Technology / Tech Development
View our presentation about mursat1, held at Grazer Linuxtage 2011:

The Art
Here you find the SatArt we are thinking about. Sensors of all kinds, data sent up and down, and all published in the public domain.
A Timeline of Space Art
SpaceArtTimeline: A research in historical landmarks of Space Art, done by AndreaSodomka and NorbertMath. I put it here as Work in Progress - mostly in german, sorry
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.

Gallery
We have a GalleryPage - our growing photo collection.
