TigerSats

TigerSats is Princeton University’s Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering student nanosatellite program. Its portfolio spans ThinSats, the Princeton CubeSat Kit, balloon experiments, microgravity hardware and TigerCub, a student-designed and ground-tested PocketQube platform. A university-hosted announcement dated 3 July 2025 records a launch-services agreement with Alba Orbital for TigerCub. That agreement documents a planned launch arrangement, while TigerSats remains the broader program rather than the identity of a single satellite.
