Decode GALASSIA Polar Orbiting Satellite with HS Soundmodem using GMSK GOMX-1 4800 baud.
The Galassia satellite, a two-unit CubeSat built and operated by the National University of Singapore (NUS), carries two research payloads; one to study the conductivity of the Earth’s ionosphere by conducting measurements of its total electron content.
The other, the Small Photon Entangling Quantum System, or SPEQS, is a quantum communications experiment.

The NUS also had a larger spacecraft aboard the launch, the 78-kilogram (172 lb) Kent Ridge 1 (KR-1). Constructed around a LEOS-50 bus developed by Germany’s Berlin Space Technologies, this microsatellite carries a medium-resolution hyperspectral imaging payload with two imagers that provide resolutions of 44 and 110 metres (144 and 361 feet) with swath widths of 48 and 56 km (30 and 35 miles).
