SB SPACE ARL ARLS009
ARLS009 Chinese Students' FM Transponder Satellite Launched

"Dream 1" (CAS-2T), a "technical verification satellite" for the CAMSAT CAS-2
series of Amateur Radio satellites, was launched on November 9 on board a Long
March CZ-11 rocket.

Developed by middle school students with the support of China's Academy of
Launch Vehicle Technology, the Science and Technology Museum, and the Eastern
Highlands Qian Youth Space Sciences Organization, the 2U CubeSat carries a ham
radio 145/435 MHz FM transponder.

CAS-2T will not separate from the final stage of its launcher rocket, so the
orbital life may be just 10 to 30 days before the final stage of the rocket
re-enters Earth's atmosphere.

CW telemetry beacon: 435.710 MHz. Transponder uplink: 145.925 MHz FM.
Transponder downlink: 435.615 MHz.
