Use of earth observation satellites have grown at a very high rate over the past few decades. On a closer observation of things around, most of them uses satellites, directly or indirectly. Satellites are being used in the day-to-day life without being aware of its application. Satellites are used for small things like weather report, communication to very large things like internet of things (IOT) and earth observation. Some CubeSats are also used for interplanetary missions. For the purpose of earth observation missions, the satellites are installed with an optical payload which is a camera. The cameras used for space are different from the regular camera and have special specifications in terms of the materials, components and the design which make them suitable for space missions. The optical payload which is to be launched has to be made sure that it can survive the launch and in orbit environment. This research focuses on the testing of these CubeSats and check if they are suitable for launch. The research starts with reviewing the testing procedure that is followed before the satellite is launched. A setup is provided for checking the performance of the camera mounted on the CubeSat and its suitability for launch. To investigate the performance of the camera, MTF and correlation techniques are used on different images to come to a conclusion.
