The objective of the Western University - Nunavut Arctic College CubeSat Project is to facilitate education and training of students in space engineering, science, operations, and outreach. The 2U CubeSat will fly a pair of VR cameras provided in-kind from Canadensys Aerospace that will provide immersive VR images from low-Earth orbit. The VR images are planned to engage the public to help demonstrate why space matters.
