Welcome to the SpudNik-1 website! Please check back often and follow us on Twitter @CubeSatUPEI for project updates.

Hello there, thank you for visiting out website! This page contains all sorts of information about the CCP and SpudNik-1.


We are Part of the Canadian CubeSat Project (CCP), an effort started and supported by the Canadian Space Agency to increase student interest and expertise in aerospace engineering. SpudNik-1 will have an optical payload for the purpose of acquiring spatio-temporal data (texture, topography, moisture content, weed and disease infestations, crop damage, etc.) from agricultural fields on PEI. These images will be used to help the agricultural sector to manage inputs on an as-needed basis to ensure economic and environmental sustainability.
