Students from the University of Victoria are designing a tiny satellite with big aspirations. When a robotic arm on the International Space Station tosses it into orbit in 2020,
the satellite—funded through a national post-secondary funding initiative of the Canadian Space Agency—that's no bigger than a two-liter carton of milk will become a vital tool to help
astronomers and cosmologists better understand the origins and future of the universe.
