What type of CubeSat (cube satellite 4x4x4 - 64 cubic inch) would you make?
Who here made a CubeSat?
There are some big money challenges for CubeSat designs.
This one was for $35,000

I started looking into building one several years ago, but I couldn't get enough information at the time, and the starting costs were high.
We have faculty in our department working with NASA that might have more info/contacts.
Do a search on Pamela Clark at JPL, or Dr. Barbara Cohen (GSFC) they have made them before. There are a few papers online.

I was told that the next moon mission(s) may have some cubesats on board.
