KSat Stuttgart | PAPELL's Journey to Orbit @KSatStuttgart | Uploaded September 2018 | Updated October 2024, 56 minutes ago.
The PAPELL experiment made it from an idea in early 2017 to the International Space Station in June 2018. Along the way there were a lot of hard work and many helping hands. This video tells the final part of this Journey, from final assembly to being installed by NASA Astronaut Ricky Arnold on-board the ISS.
PAPELL (Pump Application using Pulsed Electromagnets for Liquid reLocation) is a technology demonstration experiment for a non-mechanical pump, which uses ferrofluid and electromagnets to transport liquids, gases and solids. It was designed and built by students from the University of Stuttgarts Small Satellite Society KSat and was first activated in August 2018.
PAPELL is part of the Überflieger competition of the German Aerospace Center, which gives students the opportunity to fly their own experiments to the ISS.
