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

Who this is for
