Satellites, training and expertise, from Africa
Space is built here.
Come and build it with us.
NMD designs, builds and tests satellites in Cameroon, trains the engineers who will build the next ones, and gives you straight expert advice before you spend.
Three things we do, by one team
Build it with us, learn how it is done, or ask us first. Each path has a person at NMD behind it.
Hold a satellite you trust, built by one team.
We design your mission, then build, assemble, integrate and test the satellite, and we facilitate its flight model and its launch. You deal with one team from the first idea to the last test, and you understand every choice made.
Talk about my satellite See the PocketCube kitFinish able to design a real space mission, and prove it.
Learn online at your own pace, then take the MDL1 exam and hold a certificate that anyone can check online. The first courses are free.

Bring us your idea or your problem. We tell you in plain words what is possible, which missions already solve it, and what to do first.
Ask an expert See how we design a missionAll three together: your students build a real satellite, with a ground station that stays on campus.
NMD supplies the components, trains your students and helps them build and test one satellite. The price is published, and you can pay by bank transfer, PayPal or bank card.
PocketCube kits
Buy a real satellite to build, test and fly
Our kits are not toys and not slides. Each one is an actual engineering model of a PocketCube satellite. You assemble it, test it and operate it. When you are ready, we help you go further, to a flight model, its tests and its launch.
- 01
Learn and design
Mission architecture, requirements and link budgets, with the NMD design tools.
- 02
Assemble
Printed circuits, ESP32 sensors and antennas. You solder and build real hardware.
- 03
Test and operate
Integration, verification and validation, then you run your own ground station.
- 04
Flight model
We help you turn your engineering model into a flight model.
With NMD - 05
Test and launch
We facilitate the tests of the flight model and its launch.
With NMD
For universities, schools, companies and clubs. Students start with the free courses.
The kit is delivered in 6 weeks. Pay by bank transfer, PayPal or bank card, or write to us for an invoice. The payment methods appear once you have a free account, so that the invoice and the receipt reach you by email.
- The components of one PocketCube satellite, supplied by NMD
- NMD helps you build the satellite
- 24 hours of hands-on training, from soldering the board to operating the ground station
- A ground station that stays on your campus for every following class
- An official NMD certification for the people you train
A club that wants to launch its satellite discusses it directly with NMD.

Open the postHow you will feel when we deliver
We measure our work by this moment.
Pride, and a calm certainty.
You hold a finished satellite. You know what is inside, why each part is there and how it was tested. Nothing is left to guess.
Confidence that you can do the work.
You can look anyone in the eye and say you can design a space mission. Anyone can check your certificate online.
Relief. The fog is gone.
You know what to do first, what to leave aside, and you can explain it to your team and to the people who fund you.
The tools we use ourselves
These are the tools we use in our own mission studies, open to you. Everything a space engineer uses, in one place, with nothing to install. You can look around before you sign up. A free account lets you save your work and use it all.
Short video lessons and quizzes that take you from the basics to real mission work. Start with the free courses.
Draw a small satellite, pick real parts from real makers, and watch it fly around the Earth in 3D.
Tell us the problem you want to solve. We show you missions that already solve it and help you design what is missing.
See satellites and space debris moving above you, live.
Find free satellite pictures, aircraft and ships in one place, and download them for your own work.
Check whether your electronics can survive in orbit.
Take the MDL1 exam and earn a certificate that anyone can check online.
New space science papers, collected from open sources so you do not have to hunt for them.
Start in three steps
It takes one minute. You only need an email address.
A course, a guided tutorial, or a tool. Every tool explains itself as you go.
Your designs and your progress are saved in your account.
Who is behind it
NMD stands for Nanosatellite Missions Design. We are the first private space technology company in Central Africa. We design your space missions, and we build, assemble, integrate and test your satellites. We help universities build real research satellites, so that the next generation of space technology engineers learns by doing the real work.
Where do you want to start?
Have a satellite built, learn with the free courses, or ask an expert. If you want every course later, the membership fee of 15 000 FCFA, paid once, unlocks them all. University students from partner schools join free.
