Abstract
The paper describes the SSMS HEX Module Integration for the VEGA SSMS POC Flight. The integration, together with the aggregation of all the nano and picosatellites, took place in different European facilities between Europe and French Guiana. Among them, the SAB Aerospace facility in Brno played a fundamental role in the process. Indeed, all populated deployers have been integrated on the SSMS HEX Module in Brno. During the HEX Module integration, preliminary electrical checks for the satellites release have been performed. Finally, the finalization of the HEX Module has been performed in French Guiana at the Centre Spatial Guyanaisin Kourou (CSG) before the final integration between the SSMS Upper Part and SSMS Lower Part.
