A CubeSat goes past the International Space Station’s solar arrays
iss059e104368 (June 17, 2019) --- A tiny satellite from Singapore, also known as a CubeSat, is ejected from the Japanese Small Satellite Orbital Deployer past the International Space Station's solar arrays. The CubeSat was among three others from Asian nations deployed earlier for technology demonstrations in Earth orbit. The orbital complex was 254 miles above the Atlantic Ocean northeast of Venezuela when an Expedition 59 crewmember took this photograph.
