Taiwanese developed software has successfully been launched into space. A Japan-led mission in collaboration with researchers from Taiwan’s National Chung Hsing University and National Tsing Hua University launched a CubeSat space telescope into space. This marked a significant milestone for the participation of Taiwanese academia in international space missions. Let’s find out more.
Countdown, lift off! A CubeSat space telescope that has input from research teams at National Chung Hsing University and National Tsing Hua University successfully launches into space aboard a Japanese Jaxa H3 rocket.

Out CubeSat is a more sensitive one to make this measurement, and we’re trying to reveal where this faint light is coming from.
This mission, led by the Kyushu Institute of Technology in Japan in collaboration with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency or Jaxa, along with 13 industry, academic and research institutions from Taiwan and Japan, marks a significant milestone for Taiwan’s academic community when it comes to participating in international space science missions.

The Ministry of Education’s program to jointly launch three satellite missions with Japan is something Taiwan has never done before. I believe the successful launch of this project serves as a trailblazer for us. We hope the success of National Chung Hsing University and National Tsing Hua University will pave the way for National Central University’s satellite project next year and National Cheng Kung University’s the year after to be launched successfully.
The data reception system as well as the subsequent data processing and calibration systems used in the mission were all independently developed by the Taiwanese team. Following the successful launch, the research team will verify the satellite’s functionality and conduct preliminary observations. Over the next year, they plan to continuously collect cosmic background radiation data, moving a step closer to unraveling the mystery behind the origin of the universe’s “excess light.”
