This CubeSat mission test ultra-secure quantum communication technology, that could form the basis of a new global telecommunication system and the quantum internet. It did so by demonstrating quantum entanglement and quantum key distribution. On July 2, 2019 satellite's scientific instrument switched on and started making entangled signals in orbit. The SpooQy-1 mission builds on a previous mission in 2015, Galassia. A third mission, QKD Qubesat, will build on the results of SpooQy-1, working towards CubeSat-to-ground quantum communications for sharing secret encryption keys across the planet
