BDSAT and BDSAT-2 were two technology demonstration and amateur radio satellites developed by a Czech consortium of the CEITEC institute and the companies BD Sensors and Spacemanic. The goal of the two 1U CubeSat-type satellites was to test pressure sensor devices and supercapacitor energy storage as well as to communicate with the radio amateur community.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] BDSAT was launched in April 2022 on the Transporter-4 flight of Falcon 9 [9] but stopped transmitting signals after several weeks due to a software problem[4] [10] and burned up in the atmosphere in March 2024.[11] The replacement satellite BDSAT-2 was launched in January 2023 on Transporter-6 [3] [8] and operated successfully.[11] [12] It ended its mission in destructive re-entry in February 2025.[13] [14]
