LaunchLedger
Mission readiness & risk assessments for CubeSat teams.
CubeSat missions fail early—often from unrealistic orbit, power, propulsion, launch, and regulatory assumptions. MR³ is a structured review that surfaces mission‑killing risks before decisions are locked.
Early‑stage focus: TRL 2–5 • University & student teams (3U–12U) • Clear GO / REVISE / NO‑GO outcome
What MR³ evaluates
- Mission architecture: orbit, lifetime, payload–bus coherence
- Power & energy: peak vs average, eclipse margins, duty cycles
- Propulsion & ADCS: Δv realism, controllability, integration risks
- Launch compatibility: mass/volume margins, deployer constraints, rideshare realism
- Thermal & EMI flags: keep‑outs, placement risks, coupling issues
- Regulatory & ops: spectrum assumptions, licensing readiness, ops staffing
What you receive
- Mission Risk Brief (concise report)
- Risk matrix (likelihood × severity)
- Top 5 mission killers + “what breaks first”
- Decision locks (what becomes expensive to change later)
- Verdict: GO (with conditions) / REVISE / NO‑GO
