MOVE-II is a CubeSat currently under development by an interdisciplinary team of students of the TU Munich. It will launch into space in late 2017.  MOVE-II (Munich Orbital Verification Experiment II) is TUM's second CubeSat currently under development with launch expected in late 2017. The goal of this project is to provide a flexible platform for scientific missions including all components necessary to successfully operate scientific payloads in low earth orbit for at least six months. MOVE-II is a cooperation between the Institute of Astronautics at TUM and the Scientific Workgroup of Rocketry and Spaceflight (WARR). The project is funded by the German Aerospace Center DLR (FKZ 50RM 1509).

Last week we had the chance to conduct acoustic tests on our satellite at the Chair of Vibro-Acoustics of Vehicles and Machines (VIB). The video shows an out of plane response of one of the four Flappanels to sound pressure exposure. Thanks to the advanced facilities at VIB, it is possible to visualize the dynamic behaviour of the test specimen, which allows for a direct comparison with FEM simulations. Apart from its scientific benefit, this test is a great example of valuable cooperation between the chairs and institutes at TUM.

Hi, The MOVE-II Satellite Project is looking for new members! We are currently developing the software for the Mission Control Center which will allow us to analyse and control our satellite once it is launched at the beginning of next year. Therefore we are looking for developers that have experience in Web Development (Angular2, bootstrap) and Backend Development (Java and some Python3 tools for feeding the database with fresh information). If you are interested let us know either per mail (alexander.lill@cs.tum.edu) or come by to our weekly meeting. The weekly meeting takes place every Wednesday at 6pm. The venue is at the LRT. It is located at the Maschinenwesen building, building part 6 (this is where the jet is, just next to "printy") on the first floor. You can also find it with the room finder: https://portal.mytum.de/displayRoomMap?roomid=1601@5506&disable_decoration=yes Best wishes, MOVE-II team.
