2024: Receiving over 600,000 data packets

Satellite - server hostingprovider RUVDS worked exactly one year in orbit. Lands During this time, over 600 thousand packages were received from the device, which covered a distance of more than 240 million km. data RuVDS announced this on July 11, 2024.

Initially, we did not make long-term plans, because in this project everything was experimental: from the pico-satellite format itself, and this is a device with dimensions of 5x5x10 cm, to launching into orbit using a launch container and hosting tasks from space. A certain proportion of the risk accompanied us at every stage, but, as we can see, the device is still active and continues to work. By the way, stations throughout the Earth received 630 thousand data packets from our satellite, and during operation the device went through an orbit of 244 million km - this is over 5.5 thousand turns, - said Nikita Tsaplin, General Director of RUVDS.

Cybersecurity plan

Hosting-provider RUVDS will conduct a study of cyber security spacecraft. To study the risks vulnerabilities and will be used - satelliteserver the company, launched into orbit in 2023. The company announced this on November 16, 2023.

A series of experiments will identify the vulnerabilities of satellites and draw conclusions on the refinement of existing mechanisms for interaction with them. The study, which will involve information security experts and teams of enthusiasts, will undergo both ground infrastructure that provides communication with the device and the satellite itself.

Qualified conclusions drawn from the study will also be presented to the scientific community: I am sure this information will make a significant contribution to the development of information security of spacecraft. The life of the device is about a year, and we intend to use its resource to the maximum. Our satellite has already spent more than a hundred days in orbit, transmitted more than 120 thousand packets of information and has already set three records: RUVDS "hosted" the first site in orbit and conducted the first "space" hacker quest in CTF format. In addition, we prepared the mission itself in a short time - only eight months passed from the idea to the launch of the device, - said the general director of RUVDS Nikita Tsaplin.

The RUVDS spacecraft was delivered to orbit on June 27 by the Soyuz-2.1b launch vehicle. In early July, the device tested the hosting service from the orbital server, and at the end of the same month RUVDS and Positive Technologies held sports hacking competitions in CTF format.

Packaging in launch container and integration into StratoSat TK-1

Satelliteserver RUVDS- developed - hostingprovider together with the company, Small Space Systems (ISS) packed in a launch container and integrated into the apparatus StratoSat TK-1 by the company "" Stratonautica after passing pre-flight tests. RUVDS announced this on June 14, 2023. The devices were delivered to the cosmodrome at the cosmodrome "," East Amur Region, which completed the cycle of preparatory measures for the launch, scheduled for June 27.

Putting the satellite server into orbit will allow RUVDS to test the operation of server the equipment in extreme space space conditions and assess the prospects for further development of the project.

I can say with confidence that we are fully ready: the equipment is already in place, the next point in the route of our device will be the orbit. Lands The mission will last about a year, we have an extensive program: from checking the operation of server systems to projects aimed at popularizing technology sciences - and, although the data satellite transmission rate is only 1.2 kbps, this is enough to implement them in full. Internet also did not start with transatlantic gigabit networks. Details will be disclosed later, but I can already emphasize that anyone can take part in our space experiment, - said the Nikita Tsaplin founder and CEO of the Russian hosting provider RuVDS.

The mission will be the first use of the tainisat launch container in practice: the ISS solution allows you to launch pico satellites with a minimum size of 5x5x5 cm on rockets equipped with launch containers for KubSatov, the dimensions of which start from 10x10x10 cm, which will allow you to launch up to 8 pico satellites per unit volume of cubsats.

Our devices have successfully passed a full cycle of tests, from vibration-dynamic and thermal-vacuum, to functional and integration. The last stage of flight tests remained after the launch of the rocket and the transfer of the spacecraft to the customer. This will be a special mission, each element of which carries new knowledge and opens up prospects for further work. I am sure that this debut will be the most important milestone for both the ISS and RUVDS, "said Vladimir Bodrov, CEO of Small Space Systems.
