Project Calliope' is a satellite being launched by a group of space & music enthusiasts on the "TubeSat" platform (http://tinyurl.com/skycall). It'll be an ionospheric detector transmitting sonifiable data back to Earth for web streaming and remixing. Conceptually, it's a musical instrument in space, played by space rather than just after-the-fact sonified. We like the idea of flying something in space whose purpose is to make music until it dies-- music from science.
I-CubeX products need to fit in 200 grams: a Magnetic sensor, a Hot sensor and a microDig for interfacing.
