Did you know that the University of Toronto Aerospace Team is launching a satellite called HERON MK. II? What are HERON’s mission objectives and how have they changed overtime? What are CubeSats and what is their main purpose? How long will HERON be operational for? The University of Toronto Aerospace Team Space Systems division has been working on a CubeSat called HERON MK. II for the past 8 years and it is now ready to launch! The satellite will be launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base on a SpaceX rideshare mission aboard a Falcon 9 rocket. In the twenty second episode of The Sound of Space, past and current members of the HERON Mk.
