ARLA/CLUSTER: 5º Aniversário FUNcube-1

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

Happy 5th Birthday FUNcube-1

Five years ago, on November 21, 2013, *FUNcube-1* launched into space.
Soon, we hope to welcome ESEO (FUNcube-4) and JY1SAT (FUNcube-6) into
space. A remarkable achievement by the radio amateur volunteers of AMSAT-UK
and AMSAT-NL

Since FUNcube-1, we have had FUNcube systems in UKube-1, QB50p1, Nayif-1
and the upcoming ESEO and JY1SAT spacecraft, bringing the total FUNcube
payloads launched for STEM education and amateur radio to six.


First signals received from FUNcube-1

In five years, FUNcube has transmitted for 157,766,400 seconds, with a
256kB frame every 5 seconds, equating to approx 7.5GB of data. Our ground
network has recovered 1.7GB. On average, we see 105 daily listeners,
receiving 3688 frames per day.

*Wouter Weggelaar PA3WEG* has put together a series of video clips showing
key moments in the development of FUNcube-1 since 2010.
