Shared SpaceX mission with a Slovak footprint

Shared SpaceX mission with a Slovak footprint – Kosmonautix.cz

The Transporter program which the company SpaceX prepared for operators of small satellites, has already reached its ninth mission. As part of it, 113 small payloads will be launched into low Earth orbit. Among them we can also find the pink 1U CubeSat Veronika, which was prepared by the Czech-Slovak company Spacemanic. This is already the third Slovak CubeSat, but also the first commercial and even family Slovak satellite, as its implementation was ordered by Slovak businessman Boris Procík, who named the CubeSat after his daughter. The small satellite is intended for the popularization of cosmonautics and educational purposes. The first stage of the Falcon 9 will fly on its 12th mission and will land on the concrete surface of LZ-4.
