LibreCube – Open Source Space Exploration
The vision of LibreCube is to enable everyone to get involved and take benefit in building systems for exploration using open source hardware and software. We believe that discovering new worlds and scientific discoveries should be open to all.
Everything that is developed in the frame of LibreCube is free and open source and available to everyone.
⚙️ Open Source: Not only do we publish everything as open source, but we also strictly only use open source tools to get our projects done – so that you can modify everything to your needs, without royalties.
📖 Free and Open Standards: We rely on proven and tested standards for our system designs, mostly using standards from the space domain.
📡 Reference Architecture: We create an ecosystem of reusable elements, based on a generic architecture of system and modules that have standardized interfaces. This makes it possible to combine and tailor elements for various mission applications.
