Description: The Hyper-XACT was intended to extend the capabilities of CubeSat attitude control systems for longer duration missions with tighter performance requirements by improving pointing performance, radiation tolerance, reliability, and system life. The effort was terminated upon programmatic and technical issues.

Benefits:

The Hyper-XACT is intended to provide significantly higher pointing accuracy and knowledge along with higher radiation tolerance and longer life when compared to the current state of the art in CubeSat attitude control systems. These improved capabilities can help enable longer duration CubeSat missions, deep space CubeSat missions, and missions requiring high pointing accuracy for scientific observation.
