ESA Cubesats on International Space Station

- ESA astronaut Andreas Mogensen, the first astronaut from Denmark, explains the deployment of the student-built AAUSAT5 CubeSat - the first ESA student CubeSat mission launched from space and the pilot project of ESA’s ‘Fly Your Satellite from the ISS!’ education programme.
AAUSAT5, a CubeSat entirely built by a university team with ESA’s support, was launched to the International Space Station aboard the Japanese HTV-5 cargo vehicle 19 August 2015. Andreas gives a brief tour of the Japanese cargo vehicle's storage space, where AAUSAT5 was housed during its flight to the Station. AAUSAT5 was taken to the Japanese Kibo Laboratory, put in a Nanoracks deployer, and placed into the airlock to be launched into space.
AAUSAT5 will be deployed into orbit 5 October 2015. Aalborg University will host a special event in Aalborg, Denmark entitled "ESA CubeSats from the Space Station: a new path for education and technology" to celebrate the deployment.

Awesome video, thanks for filming!!!
wicked dubstep bro
hello from brazil ESA , have a nice day :D
damn Andreas you and your filthy dubstep beats in space. A man of space and a man of class but especially a man of his beats.
is there any video about "super moon" from space?
there are a few on various NASA channels
2:29 is that sensor poping pixels from the cosmic radiation or what, WOW
very weird indeed
+Electro phobia i hope it's not radiation screwing up the sensor because that would be some freaking energetic gamma that Andrea probably doesn't want to take
Fly me to the mars
Let me play among his moons
Let me see what spring is like on
A-Phobos and Deimos
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me
doesnt water stop some radioactive particles couldnt you in theory surround the station in a layer of water or gell that would stop most of the radioactive partices and maybe use some of that self repairing gell !!!!!!!!! er yes!!! ta! i enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!zit!!!!
+Neville Pass Some. Doesn't stop cosmic radiation enough. The current protection is adequate for low orbit.
+Arthur Dent and don't forget the costs of such a project.
+Neville Pass It costs about 10k USD per pound to get material to orbit right now. The cost to get enough water up there for shielding is prohibitively expensive. There are other materials being tested but they've proven largely ineffective without adding too much mass. So far we haven't found a good way to shield against radiation that isn't too massive to use on station. Right now they use polyethylene shielding that prevents the heavy ions from hitting the aluminum shell which causes less secondary particles.
Because of that the astronauts on the ISS work with the same radiation exposure limits as radiation workers on Earth (as set by the EPA). They're still well inside the Earth's magnetic field so they're relatively well protected.
r0nas22 Indeed. Its just not cost-effective.
+Neville troll
yes, but what about going to mars , maybe a gel can be made to be more efficient than water with reflective abilities er yes ta! i enjoy!!!!!!DIT!!
