BUTCube satellite module, it is one of the modules that can be physically placed
in the panel of the solar module and extend the functionality of the satellite
according to the needs.

This particular module allows for the determination of the angle of the sun
relative to the satellite. This is a method of determining the position of
a satellite, for example, when it is not possible to obtain information from GNSS
satellites. For example, if the satellite is in an orbit that is above the orbit
of GNSS satellites or the satellite is not properly oriented to receive GNSS
data.
