Fall of 2026 is underway for the Small Satellite Research Lab!

Now that we are fully back from summer break we are excited to announce that we have a lot in store for this semester.

From clean room tutorials, to mission updates, to new lab space housing warming, to continuing our 10 year anniversary celebration, we have so much planned!

Stay tuned because you won’t want to miss a thing!

Even when it is 91°F outside, our researchers are still working hard!

Today a few of our lab members braved the heat to conduct a CCT. This kind of dedication is what makes the UGA SSRL so unique!

(Shoutout to the UGA Climatology Research Lab for the weather data!)

How has the lab changed over the years?

Welcome back to day five of celebrating ten years of SSRL! Across the ten years of the lab, our workspace has changed significantly. Our physical lab has seen some transformation as we take on new missions and on board new researchers. Some of these changes include adding a TVAC, a Cleanroom, a Helmholtz Cage, and wall decor. All of the changes reflect the goals, achievements, and personalities of the many researchers who have supported this lab!

Then vs. Now Thursday

Welcome back to another day of celebrating our tenth year of SSRL!

Throughout these ten years, one thing that has not changed is our team effort. The progress we have made is because of the unique ways that each researcher contributes to their mission. So today, we are celebrating the people who have made our successes possible!
