Description: CubeSat Integrated Star Tracker’s (CubIST) purpose is to design, build, and test a prototype star tracker available to CU Boulder for future development. CubIST will take images of stars and detect patterns that are compared to a star catalog. CubIST will deliver an attitude solution in the form of a quaternion for future CubeSat missions to use.
