CAPSat Status 10/16

CAPSat continues to be healthy and transmitting its beacon every 90 sec.  Four days post-deployment, we are now in an ISS-imposed quiet period until we drift more than 225 km from ISS. We'll resume status reports after we clear the keep-out zone.


Onboard the spacecraft, we can report the batteries are charged and temps are nominal:


Battery Voltages: (3.9719238, 3.96709, 3.9687011, 3.9574218)
Battery Temperatures: [23.942995110388267, 24.16744032724546, 20.906393041092997, 24.392958655065115]
