EO-79, also known as QB50p1 and FUNcube-3, is a 2U cubesat (10cm x 10cm x 20cm) built
and launched as a collaborative effort led by the von Karman Institute and ISIS-BV.
The primary function of the satellite is testing of the systems designed for the QB50
mission cubesats, including the Attitude Determination and Control System, Ion and
Neutral Mass Spectrometer, Oxygen Flux Probe, Satellite Control Software, and the
Quadpack deployer. Additionally, the satellite carries a AMSAT-NL constructed transponder
as a return favor for support of the use of the amateur bands for the primary QB50
mission. The transponder will be active after the primary mission is complete, estimated
at six months. (Source AMSAT-NA)
