FossaSat FEROX is a picosatellite series developed by Fossa Systems, a non-profit association developing pocketqube picosatellite technology and democratizing access to space.

The FossaSat FEROX satellites feature an unusual, CubeSat-derived form-factor. With a volume of 1.5U, it has a length of 3U, a width of 2U and a height of 1/4U. This allows for a launch of four of those satellites in a single 6U CubeSat deployer.
