The mission season
More than a one-day competition
Teams progress through learning, digital-twin practice, qualification and an IST final. The same platform supports schools, colleges, universities and selected international teams without giving every category the same technical interface.
01
Register a mentor-led mission team
02
Receive initial Mission Credits and a Parwaz Mission Crew Pass
03
Learn and practise in the level-appropriate digital twin
04
Qualify through server-authoritative mission runs
05
Shortlisted teams attend the final event at IST
06
Selected winners enter the Parwaz Pathfinder development pathway
Participation paths
One challenge, level-appropriate experiences
The mission objective stays recognisable while guidance, controls, physics visibility and fault complexity change by participant level.
college
College Mission Teams
Block coding, sensors, telemetry and controller tuning.
university
University Mission Teams
Control systems, mission scripting, faults, AI and evidence-based engineering.
international
International Invitational Teams
Selected teams participate through the same digital-twin mission framework.
Initial mission library
Missions with measurable engineering outcomes
Practice missions run on versioned MissionLab models. Official seeds, scoring authority and attempt limits remain server-side and inactive until a separately approved competition round.
M-01ADCS and control systems
StableSat
Stop an initial rotation and stabilise the CubeSat inside the target tolerance.
M-02Sensors and embedded systems
SunLock
Use directional light sensing to acquire and maintain the artificial Sun target.
M-03Pointing and imaging
EarthPoint
Point the onboard camera towards the Earth target and hold a valid observation window.
M-04Electrical power systems
PowerSafe
Protect the mission through low-power, eclipse and payload-load conditions.
M-05Data and AI
Telemetry Detective
Find sensor, link or actuator abnormalities in mission telemetry.
KidSAT exhibition lane
Compare software decisions with supervised hardware
KidSAT correlation may be demonstrated locally by a trained operator as a future exhibition lane. It does not change official software scores, attempts, or standings; an official hardware division requires separate rules and safety acceptance.
Open KidSAT Mission ConsoleOfficial hardware scoring: off
Difficulty control
Easy to enter. Difficult to master. Fair by design.
Administrators can tune validated difficulty profiles and choose fixed, random-pool or hidden-seeded scenarios. Official runs remain server-controlled, versioned and equal within each category.
L1School beginner
Explorer
Strong guidance, visual controls and forgiving mission limits.
L2Advanced school or college
Builder
Block logic, moderate disturbances and clearer engineering trade-offs.
L3University or enthusiast
Engineer
Controller tuning, sensor uncertainty, saturation and mission evidence.
L4Advanced official rounds
Challenge
Hidden bounded scenarios, faults and minimal guidance under fixed rules.
Purchased practice cannot increase the official-attempt quota. Hidden official parameters stay on the server until the run is finalized.
Mission Credits
Free discovery, controlled paid practice
Teams receive included credits. Additional credits may later be purchased for optional practice—especially scarce supervised hardware rehearsals. Every rate, pack, limit and activation gate remains under administrator control.

Parwaz Mission Crew Pass
Turn every team into a visible mission story
Approved teams receive a privacy-safe public Crew Pass, milestone badges and a shareable animated mission page. The production pass will include a tested QR code linking directly to that public experience.
Founding edition
Build the team before the mission window opens
Registration persistence and payment activation will follow the approved Phase 1 database deployment. The current route begins the mentor-led application journey without claiming that production applications are already open.
