Design and Development of Space and Ground Segment of the program InOrbit NOW.The program until now counts the following satellites• ION-mk01 Lucas SCV-001 mission ORIGIN (launched)The satellite was launched the 3/9/2020 from French Guiana atop an Arianespace Vega launcher, Norad ID 46274. The satellite is a small spacecraft deployer of CubeStas and microsatellites into precise and independent orbital slots.• ION-mk02 (to be launched)The satellite will be launched in the 2021. The satellite is a small spacecraft deployer of CubeStas and microsatellites into precise and independent orbital slots equipped with a liquid propulsion system.The Flight Software developed for the InOrbit NOW program include all the systems and subsystems of the satellites. In particular: OBC; ADCS; DPOD deployer system equipped with FPGA; DSENSE multi-sensors module equipped with Sun and Earth’s horizon sensors, magnetometer, gyroscope and camera; DACT reaction wheel module; PROACT propulsion system module equipped with FPGA; OBDH and TM/TC.The HW used is AVR32 Microcontroller with: 1Gbit SPI flash memory, 4Mbit FRAM, 256Mbit SDRAM, 2x CAN interfaces, 2x RS-422 interfaces, 2x I2C interfaces, 2x SPI interfaces, 4 x 4 GB configurable eMMC non-volatile memory.The real-time embedded Software is developed in FreeRTOS OS using C language. The Software follow the ECSS, it is unit tested and integrated in the CI/CD Jenkins server.A command line Test Ground Station was developed for the Ground Segment of the mission that include the Telecommands encoding and the Telemetry decoding.
