The number may seem large, but it is worth mentioning that these were 7 microsatellites and 46 nanosatellites. Most of them weighed less than 15 kilograms. It was a validation flight of the European Space Agency's Small Spacecraft Mission Service (SSMS) program. Its goal is to develop space technologies and offer owners of small satellites the opportunity to send them into space.
