SUMMARY
The discussion centers on identifying the best and most affordable Cubesat or Tubesat projects currently available, particularly for individuals interested in joining existing satellite development groups rather than creating their own. A participant, Sabi, expresses a desire to collaborate on a satellite project, especially given the impracticality of independent development as a high school student. Resources such as Google searches for Cubesat projects at IIT India are suggested as starting points for further exploration.
