Mission Objective: Design and assemble a small, autonomous 1U CubeSat measuring instrument, weighing up to 1,500 grams and measuring 105 mm x 105 mm x 105 mm (L x H x W), capable of conducting atmospheric research, aerial photography, and safe return to Earth. Mission Objectives: Study the composition of air in the lower atmosphere, including measuring temperature, pressure, humidity, gas composition, and the air quality index (AQI); Capture aerial photography of the surrounding area for visual analysis, including determining cloud cover and identifying potential pollution; Create a web application displaying dynamic graphs in real time; Transmit data to a ground station in real time and store it on an SD card. Mission Significance: Research into the lower atmosphere plays a key role in air quality analysis, pollution monitoring, and meteorological observations. This problem is particularly pressing for Almaty, as it ranks first on the list of the most polluted cities in the world, with an air quality index of 208. High levels of air pollution and industrial emissions pose a serious environmental threat, impacting public health and the environment. This work is both research-based and practical, focusing on monitoring atmospheric conditions and developing an autonomous measuring device.
