Scientific paper

The High Energy Transient Explorer is an unusually small and inexpensive satellite. We will discuss the technology that made this possible. HETE incorporates a robust and efficient power system, a 3-axis stabilized gyroless control system, and an unusually efficient communication system. We will discuss the advantages this technology offers for the HETE mission, as well as the constraints it imposes and the difficulties it has caused.
