NEXUS is a CubeSat which is developed by Miyazaki and Yamazaki Laboratory at College of Science and Technology, Nihon University and The Japan AMSAT Association. The purpose of this satellite is to demonstrate the operation of three radio devices and a camera system. We have developed these components to propose to the CubeSat developers in the future. With these components, they will be able to reduce development time and increase mission diversity. Furthermore, we have a plan to open the technical information of NEXUS to the public. By providing information, the technical threshold of developing satellite will be lowered. The summary and status of the current development of NEXUS are described in this paper.
