The 64 kg (141 lbm)
Mozhaets was built by NPO Prikladnoi Mekhaniki, Zheleznogorsk,
with a payload built by professors and students of the Mozhaisky
Military Space Academy. It includes a GLONASS/GPS receiver, a
particle detector, and an amateur radio payload. This satellite
will be used to estimate the influence of radiation flux on the
service life of onboard electronic systems. The satellite will be
used as a learning tool by students of the military space academy,
as well as conduct studies in the field of geodesy, among other
objectives. It may be based on the Strela-1M small communication
satellite bus.
