Binar-1 consists of just one such module, meaning it\u2019s technically a 1U CubeSat.<\/p>\n<p>Binar-1 is equipped with two cameras, with two objectives: first, to photograph Western Australia from space, thus testing the performance of our instruments and hopefully also capturing the imagination of young WA students; and second, to image stars. The star camera will precisely determine which way the satellite is facing \u2014 a crucial capability for any future Moon mission.<\/p>\n<p>You can listen to the episode now from <a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/au\/podcast\/the-future-of\/id1478709485\">Spotify<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.google.com\/?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5zaW1wbGVjYXN0LmNvbS9vc29lS2JrQg%3D%3D\">Google<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/au\/podcast\/the-future-of\/id1478709485\">Apple<\/a>, or from the <a href=\"https:\/\/news.curtin.edu.au\/podcasts\/binar-1-and-space-science\/\">Curtin website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For questions or suggestions for future topics, please email <a href=\"mailto:thefutureof@curtin.edu.au\">thefutureof@curtin.edu.au<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Curtin University\u2019s Binar-1 CubeSat satellite will provide easy access to space for students, researchers and industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4412,"featured_media":20385,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_oasis_is_in_workflow":0,"_oasis_original":0,"_oasis_task_priority":"","_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","wds_primary_oasis-categories":0,"footnotes":""},"oasis-categories":[144],"class_list":["post-13888","oasis-news","type-oasis-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","oasis-categories-science-engineering"],"acf":false,"featured_image":"https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/NASA-1588x840-1.jpg","author_meta":{"first_name":"Louis","last_name":"Humberstone","display_name":"Louis Humberstone"},"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-24 17:56:41","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"oasis-categories","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/oasis-news\/13888","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/oasis-news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/oasis-news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4412"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/oasis-news\/13888\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20385"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13888"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"oasis-categories","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/oasis-categories?post=13888"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
