Transporter-15 (Alba Flight 10) Deploys HUNITY, SARI-1/2 and ANISCSAT, Pushing PocketQube Index Past 90 Spacecraft
SpaceX’s Falcon 9 Transporter-15 placed four PocketQubes into Sun-synchronous orbit, including BME Budapest’s 3P HUNITY (NORAD 66670) and Azerbaijan’s 1P ANISCSAT.
Launched on 28 November 2025 from Vandenberg Space Force Base aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9, the Transporter-15 mission carried Alba Orbital’s tenth PocketQube cluster (Alba Flight 10).
Leading the engineering manifest is HUNITY (NMHH-1, NORAD 66670), a 3P PocketQube developed at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME) that continues the flight-proven SMOG-P, ATL-1, SMOG-1 and MRC-100 RF spectrum monitoring heritage with deployable solar arrays.
The cluster also deployed SARI-1 and SARI-2 (1P educational picosatellites for Saudi Arabia) and ANISCSAT (1P, developed by Baku State University and Azercosmos), bringing the cumulative 2013–2025 PocketQube count in the nadir lab. mission index to 93 spacecraft.
