The PROVES Five mission is a lean, low-cost, multi-satellite CubeSat program that developed and tested open software for five spacecraft in five months. We will walk through the development, management, and triaging process that enabled rapid development across many institutions. Finally, we will present our lessons-learned and show how Open Source both enabled this project and is the result of this project. Attendees will learn about management, development, and testing of projects built on NASA’s F Prime and The Linux Foundation’s Zephyr Real Time Operating System bound for space!
