This image was acquired at a distance of 67 metres from the cube picosatellite, which has an edge length of just 10 centimetres.
 
The picosatellite is reflecting sunlight, which makes it seem extremely bright. The satellite and its two antennas are clearly visible. While BIROS is approximately the size of a washing machine and weighs 130 kilograms, the picosatellite itself has an edge length of just 10 centimetres.
