Description of MAST Satellite:
MAST (Multiple Application Survivable Tether experiment) is a triplet of 1.0 kg American Cubesats, one below the other. It was launched by a Dnepr rocket from Baikonur at 07:02 UT on 17 April 2007. Built by Stanford University students, it is intended to study damage to the multiple-wire tether due to meteoric impacts and UV-engendered degradation. Once in orbit, two of the three were to separate as free flyers.
