The main purpose of the mission is to test the tiny satellite’s equally tiny high-speed transmitter capable of sending a 480 x 640 jpeg image inside of six seconds.

“Oh, and there’s a catch — you have to learn Morse code, since this is a CW-only transmitter.” Nah, you can do a little hack and put a dynamic microphone in the oscillator line and have AM.

An ultra-small Japanese satellite is being spotted from the ground, thanks to a set of lights that flash brightly in Morse code. The novel cubesat, known as FITSAT-1, has been orbiting Earth since ...

One of the cubesats, FITSAT-1, will write messages in the night sky with Morse code, helping researchers test out optical communication techniques for satellites, researchers said. Artificial star ...

Five of the tiny satellites were placed into orbit from the International Space Station earlier this month, including one designed to flash Morse Code messages across the night sky.

Twinkle, twinkle little cubesat: Tiny orbiter will shine like a star to transmit Morse Code messages from the sky. Tiny orbiter will write 'Hi this is Niwaka Japan' across the heavens ...

The tiny spark produced in a light switch when you turn it on also produces radio waves which is why you hear a click on the radio when you turn nearby electrical items on and off.

Inside an unmanned craft now headed towards the International Space Station sit several smallish, cube-shaped satellites. Soon, one of them will be writing Morse code messages across the sky.
