This paper provides key insights from the test campaign of a student CubeSat payload, along with actionable recommendations for future missions. The University of Bristol, UK, is developing a volcano imaging CubeSat payload-PROVE Pathfinder. This 2U payload consists of a visual and a thermal infrared camera, and their power and control electronics....

... the BeagleBone end, this required the removal of the RJ-45 hub, and the installation of a custom PCB carrying the passives (capacitors, resistors and magnetics) necessary for the operation of this interface. Several "No Handle Zones" were identified due to the optical nature of the payload, these are shown in Figure 6. This avoids the possibility of contamination on the lens elements, and any inadvertent shorts of electronics -though any handling was required to follow safe ESD practice regardless regardless. ...
