Abstract
Smaller satellites are of increasing interest; more widely used in recent years.
Bryce's Smallsats by the Numbers presents historical information on smaller satellites launched 2012-2019 (regardless of operational status).
Definition used here, 600 kg and under, reflects the five smallest mass classes defined by the FAA.
'Smallsat' or 'very small satellite' are often used to refer to smaller satellites.
