In the evolution of spacecraft technology the importance of MNT is Micro/Nano Technology (MNT) more and more recognized as a key technol- ogy. The NanoSpace-1 project and the ongoing related development projects are here used to illus- trate the usefulness of MNT implementation in new space missions. NanoSpace-1 is the first demonstrator nanosatel- lite, based on a massive implementation of advanced multifunctional Micro/Nano Technology (MNT). The primary mission objective is to qualify this new breed of spacecraft together with individual functional microsystem modules or subsystem. The NanoSpace-1 spacecraft will carry a number of important technology demonstrators. These span from the untraditional structural design - replacing the aluminium with large multifunctional silicon modules, containing most of the electronics and eliminating the need for electronic boxes - to a selection of micropropulsion experiments, including pro- portional Cold Gas Micro Thrusters for full three-axis stabilization and high precision formation flying demonstration. The square-shaped body is around 300 x 300 x 100 mm and the total dry mass is less than 8 kg.
