TstarD-100 Deep-Space Mission Platform
TstarD-100 is TÜBİTAK UZAY’s deep-space spacecraft platform, developed through Türkiye’s Lunar Research Programme. It integrates power management, telecommunications, flight management, attitude and orbit control, and thermal control for missions beyond Earth orbit. The first Turkish Lunar Spacecraft is an implementation of this platform. The published platform capabilities include up to 300 kg payload capacity, up to 2.6 kW output power, S-band and X-band communications, and attitude control using reaction wheels and thrusters. Its adaptable architecture is designed for mission lifetimes exceeding three years. The planned duration of an individual lunar science mission is separate from that platform design capability.
