Abstract

The number of CubeSats launched since the first group of six CubeSats was launched in March 2003 has increased. Several reliable databases that collect CubeSat information show that 1035 CubeSats have been launched as of 31 December, 2018. The author has taken the opportunity to use the information published in these databases and presents a statistical overview of CubeSat missions in this paper. This overview will hopefully be beneficial to the readers.
