Warsaw University of Technology students plan to launch third satellite in 2025 (Poland)

Students from the Warsaw University of Technology have been working on the third in a series of nanosatellites, which they plan to put into space in the fall of 2025.

The launch was originally scheduled for this year, but was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Members of the Students Space Association of the university’s Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering successfully put the first Polish satellite, PW-Sat, into orbit in 2012. This feat was followed in 2018 by the launch of PW-Sat2.

Now PW-Sat3, a cube satellite, is intended to continue the work of its two predecessors. Its purpose is to test the drive that enables maneuvers within orbit and solutions for avoiding space junk.
