Well, here's an interesting site I found. http://www.nanosats.eu/, World's largest database of nanosatellites,
almost 2000 nanosats and CubeSats
It contains every small sat launch, with known dates, organisations and mission descriptions. As far as I could tell SAS is the only organisation (other than a couple military nano's) that will offer an LEO small sat comms network.
How much detail? Well, I'll let you all search that, but I does include the Diamonds and the Pearls numbered 1- 200.
It claims that Pearls 1-10 will be up this calendar year, 11-100 in 2019 and 101-200 in 2020. His info page points to where he gets his data. And those links lead to a whole new back of potential research.
You can download all the data. I bet some enterprising Excel junkie could do some very informative analysis with this database.
I suggest we keep this thread for any research gems that people may stumble upon.
