CubeSX-HSE-2 represents a satellite with an AIS hardware and software package on board. It receives navigation data from ships. The collected information from the spacecraft is transmitted to ground stations and processed. 

The satellites are controlled by the Mission Control Centers of the HSE MIEM and SPUTNIX. With the help of the SC, you can track and adjust the routes of ships, including along the Northern Sea Route. 

A MEPhI plasma engine is installed on the satellite. An experiment will be conducted with him to correct the orbit, which gradually decreases during the flight due to friction with the upper layers of the atmosphere.

Beacon telemetry (R4UAB database).

Satellite tracking by stations of the international amateur radio network SatNOGS.
