Following the small satellite developers workshop in April there are a number of interesting papers available online.
A cubesat using D-Star which has been selected for launch on the Vega launcher is certainly an eye catching project.

Personally, my favourite so far is the 1U propulsion system capable of propelling a 3U cubesat with a delta V of 400 metres per second. ( This is enough to go from 600km to about 1900km altitude !)
Have fun reading...

I am not sure how many members of AMSAT NA are also members of AMSAT UK nor indeed, how many "UK" members subscribe to this board but I would like to take the opportunity of publicly thanking Dave Johnson (G4DPZ), Jim Heck (G3WGM) and anyone else involved in the production and publication of AMSAT UK "Oscar News" (Number 185, March 2009) which found its way down to me today here in deepest "ex-pat" 4 land.
A really excellent job.

Mine arrived in TN today as well. I have tucked it away to read at Dayton, but the new, larger format is great.
