Head of Sales & Marketing for CubeSpace Benoit Chamot is on the Cold Star Project, and with host Jason Kanigan we're looking at attitude determination and control systems (ADCS) for satellites. We discuss:

• how Benoit earned Masters degrees from both Lausanne and MIT, and the projects involved
• the critical ADCS system for satellites, and the components they're made of such as sun sensors, reaction wheels, PCBs
• why CubeSpace chose to focus on reaction wheels, designing and manufacturing their own CubeWheel product
• why the company encourages South African space industry and opportunities for young engineers
