A team of University of Alaska Fairbanks students will build the Air Force a nanosatellite roughly the size of an ordinary loaf of sliced bread to show that communications technology of large satellites can be packed into a small space and deliver much more data.

UAF was the only one out of 10 university teams to advance to the next phase in the University Nanosatellite Program, managed by the Air Force Research Laboratory's Space Vehicles Directorate at Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico.
