University of Victoria Centre for Aerospace Research (CfAR)

We’re thrilled to announce that our University of Victoria Centre for Aerospace Research (CfAR) has secured a $2.82 million contract from Defence Research and Development Canada | Recherche et développement pour la défense Canada (DRDC) under the national SpaceLEO Program. This funding will enable CfAR to design and build a satellite slated for launch in November 2027. We are one of only three Canadian teams selected for this high-impact initiative.
