ResearchSat provides end-to-end services that enable space science research in the form of satellite platforms for researchers and organisations, to run experiments in space. The company’s payloads facilitate conditions for drug design and development for pharmaceutical companies on a commercial scale as well as provide opportunities to all academic researchers who are interested in space biology research.
Part of the company’s core technology is an advanced microfluidic chip integrated with a state-of-the-art electronic sensor suite and data acquisition system. These experiments allow the platform to understand and control the behavioural changes of microbes in spaces, as well as aiding in the development of new pharmaceutical products. ResearchSat provides an end-to-end service so that researchers can focus on the thing that matters the most - their experiments. Co-design: collaboration with the researcher to develop the microfluidic chip and sensor suite based on the needs of that particular experiment. Launch logistics: all logistics related to the launch, including regulatory requirements, insurance, and transportation will be taken care of. Results delivery: feedback of data, in near real-time, fully translated from the payload’s sensors, monitoring equipment and specimen delivery.
The platform is configurable to facilitate research across multiple industries, ranging from food (new food products), pharma (drug discovery/precision medication), agriculture (nutrient research) and biotech(next generation equipment).
ResearchSat is looking to collaborate with research organisations, academic researchers and cubesat platforms who can host their payload. There is also a potential for partnerships with other cubesat companies to share launch costs. The company is aiming to launch their first payload into orbit by late 2020 and is actively seeking research and funding partners.

Two UniSA startups travelled to Petwood (South-East of Adelaide) on Saturday to launch a one-storey-high aerial monitoring balloon, in a testing phase that will lead to a rocket launch in 2020.
Two startups at UniSA’s Innovation & Collaboration Centre (ICC) have taken out three of 10 challenges at the GRAVITY Space Challenge that wrapped up last week.
Today the University of South Australia has announced the five companies that have been chosen to be part of the State’s first space incubator program, Venture Catalyst Space.
