                         NANOSATC-BR1 (1U), launched in 2014 and currently in standby mode, 
                         and the NANOSATC-BR2 (2U), which was recently launched in March 
                         22, 2021 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan. In this 
                         article, the launch of NANOSATC-BR2 is presented, alongside with
