Initially, CubeSat was created at California State Polytechnic University in 1999, pursuing exclusively educational purposes. But this concept quickly became popular and spread to other universities.
They are not only cheap in terms of manufacturing, but also endowed with high potential for exploring the Earth and the entire system. They can be sent in groups and study objects from different points, which will be much cheaper than launching a large device.
