of cubic star innovatively and is featured with a short R&D period, high
technical integration, light weight, small size, low cost, etc. As the first
satellite of this type for technical identification, "Tianjin University
No. 1" Satellite will not only complete the required in-orbit operations,
but also carry out in-orbit verification on the rationality and reliability of
the design of the satellite platform and payload, laying a technical foundation
for the mass production of subsequent business satellites.
