Description

Definition and Scope:

The CubeSat market refers to the global industry surrounding the design, manufacture, launch, and operation of CubeSats—miniaturized satellites constructed from standardized cubic units, each measuring 10 × 10 × 10 cm and typically weighing between 1–2 kg per unit. Depending on mission requirements, CubeSats are configured in sizes ranging from 1U to 16U, resulting in a total mass of roughly 3–32 kg. Originally developed as educational tools, CubeSats have evolved into a versatile platform for commercial, scientific, and defense applications, including Earth observation, communications, technology demonstration, and space exploration. Their modular architecture, off-the-shelf subsystems, and rapid development cycle—often just one to two years—make them far cheaper and faster to deploy than traditional satellites. CubeSats typically leverage rideshare launches or deployment from the International Space Station (ISS), significantly reducing launch costs and broadening accessibility for universities, research institutions, startups, and established aerospace companies. With growing adoption for both near-Earth and interplanetary missions, the CubeSat market represents a key enabler of low-cost space access and innovation in the broader small satellite industry.
