In May 2018, integration, testing and preparation for the launch of PW-Sat2, a satellite built by members of the Astronautic Student Research Group, came to full completion. After that, the satellite waited in a cleanroom for the next big step: integration with a QuadPack, i.e. the container which would house the satellite during the rocket launch. The successful integration with the QuadPack took place on 26 July 2018 at the offices of Innovative Space Logistics in Delft, the Netherlands. The QuadPack will be transferred to the United States and placed in XSpace’s Falcon 9 rocket this fall.
