                         take care of new demands for environmental monitoring, supplying 
                         new services and incorporating improvements to the system 
                         performance. The mission of CONASAT comprises designinga solution 
                         to SBCDA, based on the use of a constellation of nanosatellites 
                         with mass between 1 kg to 10 kg, using emerging technologies in 
                         the fields of electronics and telecommunications and the

                         satellite will receive the signals sent by the Platforms
