Integrated glass ceramic systems
TL;DR: In this paper, a support structure for integrated glass-ceramic spacecraft is described, where a plurality of glass ceramic components including molded, tempered, annealed, and patterned glass ceramics are coupled together for forming support structure or frame or housing through which is communicated optical signals through an optical communications grid and electrical signals through a electrical communications grid, with the optical and electrical grids forming a composite electrooptical communications grid for spacecraft wide intercommunications.
Book
Small Satellites: Past, Present, and Future
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the state of the art in microstats, nanostats, picostats and CubeSats, and the possible missions they can perform.
Patent
Thermoelectric-based refrigerator apparatuses
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a refrigerator that includes a housing with an interior chamber, thermoelectric devices that are thermally coupled to the interior chamber and dual redundant electronics configured to generate and apply input power.

TL;DR: The first demonstration of a lasercom downlink from a LEO 1.5U 2.3 kg CubeSat to the optical ground station at The Aerospace Corporation in El Segundo, CA is discussed, demonstrating communications links up to 100 Mbps with bit error rates near 10-6 without any forward error correction.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Direct-write UV-laser microfabrication of 3D structures in lithium-aluminosilicate glass
TL;DR: In this article, a 3D patterning technique was used to fabricate microstructures in alumosilicate glass (FoturanTM) to provide rapid micro-thrusters for attitude and orbit control of a 1kg class (10 cm diameter) nanosatellite.
