KvarkenSat, the first small satellite in the Kvarken region, will be built in cooperation between Finns and Swedes – drawings by children and young people will also be launched on the satellite.

KvarkenSat is a joint small satellite between the Ostrobothnian provinces and Västerbotten, which is due to be launched into space in just over a year. The small satellite is the result of cooperation across the Kvarken. It also demonstrates that the conquest of space is not just for space superpowers.
