muchfaster than other subsystems. It should also be noted that all the subsystems were designed basedon the CubeSat design constraints and BillikenSat 1’s mission constraints. All the subsystemswent through rigorous design process (namely systems requirement, conceptual design, detaileddesign and final design). This paper gives the description of these subsystems at the Final DesignPhase.

The simulator is tailor-made toaccompany our university's Aircraft Design course. By pairing the our simulator with the courseengineering students will be able to learn about aircraft design, create their custom airplane usingX-Plane 11’s plane maker software, and then experience flying it on our simulator. Thisimmediate, immersive feedback enriches the students' knowledge of aircraft design and increasesinterest in the topic. Additionally, the portable design of the simulator enables the system toserve as an exciting advertisement to pre-college students considering the world of

theprinciples of electrostatic propulsion, a different device known as an electrospray thruster may beused instead. Electrospray thrusters are significantly simpler to make and, although the operationis somewhat different to gridded ion and Hall thrusters, the basic principles of electrostaticpropulsion can be accurately demonstrated with the electrospray system.Electrospray thrusters are not a new technology, being first developed in the 1960’s [1]. Initiallythey were not popular due to low thrust levels and high voltages required. The emergence ofmicro- and nano- satellite technologies has seen a resurgence in interest in electrospray systemsas there are more avenues for their use and improvements in technology have dropped therequired voltages [2,3

In the program, allgravity assists are assumed to be powered, and if an unpowered gravity assist is better, theoptimization reduces the ΔV magnitude to a negligible value.2 In the figure, the incoming andoutgoing hyperbolic trajectories are shown in black and blue, respectively, with a red poweredΔV direction vector.

mid-nineties. In contrast, AE enrollment grew till 1988 and then sharply declined. The reason forthis disparity is that while engineering went through downsizing and mergers, 1980’s was adynamic time for aerospace engineering [8]. Truly the eighties were an exciting time for AEindustry where the U.S. increased its funding in the sector to almost excessive [9]. Followingthis period of excessive spending, the sector faced huge downsizing due to the slash infunding and recession. To put it in perspective, the AE sector slashed half a million jobs from1989 to 1995 [9]. Undergraduate enrollment in AE followed similar trends to that of itsindustry. Fletcher (1998) warned that the sharp decline in enrollment in AE will have seriousconsequences on

Entrance to the school ishighly selective, and as such most students already possess at least one post graduate degree, haveadvanced study skills, are extremely competitive and motivated, are usually in their late 20’s orearly 30’s, and all have shown significant military career progression potential.

This speed would allow for much greater flow speeds, but the clarity of theimages are sacrificed at higher frame rates. The higher frame rate images also containexceptionally more noise. Unfortunately, the Casio EX-F1 is no longer available for newpurchase in the United States, but plenty of similar cameras exist. For example, Ryerson andSchwenk [7] used the Casio EX-FH25, which has since been replaced by the EX-FH100. Thesecameras are cheaper than the EX-F1 and would work just as well in the present system.

When students areinvolved in conducting a research study, they also participate in writing the findings in the paperand therefore get a chance to become authors of scholarly research publications. 6. Student PerspectivesSeveral students that work on various projects in the lab were asked questions about the usabilityof the lab.
