Cubesat deployment from KIBO / ISS
… is now scheduled for October 4, starting at 14:35 UTC
ISS / KIBO cubesat launch
Cubesat deployment from ISS is postponed to next week.
ISS/KIBO cubesat deployment on Sep 27
The first two satellites (RAIKO, WE WISH) will be deployed around 15:10 – 15:20 UTC manually by astronaut Akihiko Hoshide. Three other satellites (FITSAT-1, NanoRacks,and TechEdSat) will be deployed around 16:30 – 16:40 UTC by the robotic arm.
JAXA will broadcast the deployment: http://iss.jaxa.jp/iss/jaxa_exp/hoshide/library/live/

Cubesat launch from KIBO (ISS)
CubeSats from ISS_KIBO will be deployed in the afternoon of 27 Sep 2012.
The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) plans the demonstration of small satellites deployment from the Japanese Experiment Module “Kibo” of the International Space Station (ISS) in order to enhance the capability of Kibo’s utilization and to offer more launch oppotunities to small satellites.
The CubeSats are mounted in a JEM-Small Satellite Orbital Deployer (J-SSOD). In one POD are FITSAT-1, TechEdSat and F-1 and in the second POD is WeWish and a scientific 2U CubeSat RAIKO.
