1000 days in orbit for ham radio satellite Delfi-C3

1000 days in orbit for ham radio satellite Delfi-C3

Sunday, January 23 saw the 1000th day in orbit for the Amateur Radio satellite Delfi-C3, which was the first 3U CubeSat to carry a linear transponder.

Wouter PA3WEG writes:

The downlink is still OK and telemetry shows no big degradations. This means Delfi-C3 is still in good health.

Apart from the problems with the transponder and some occasional resets and lockups, scientific data is still being received. Also, this data is still forwarded by radio amateurs to our server. Once again our big thanks for receiving
Delfi-C3 and your continued support of the project.
