Aerospace Research Opportunity

The Space Physics and Technology Lab is looking to recruit students to participate in development of the CuPID Cubesat Observatory (http://sites.bu.edu/cupid/). The spacecraft is scheduled for launch in September 2021 and will carry innovative X-ray optics into orbit to study the Earth’s magnetic field and its interaction with the sun. The lab is looking for students to participate roughly 6 hours a week in testing of the spacecraft as well as development of the ground software pipeline.  If interested please reach out to Professor Walsh (bwalsh@bu.edu) by email with a CV.
