The
Montana State University Maia University Nanosatellite Project will
characterize magnetospheric energetic charged particle
variations near Earth using new state-of-the-art solid state particle
detectors. It will demonstrate operation
of a novel on-orbit deployment system and the use of
newly-developed miniature hybrid magnetoresistive magnetometers for
attitude control.

Maia
is a stackable modular design where the component boxes are
integrated into the structure.
