What do you think ConSat-1's biggest risk is?

Inability to acquire a launch

If launches are too difficult to come by, we might have a working satellite that stays under a glass box in Concordia, rather than circling the globe.

        No glass satellites! If they won't send it up, maybe we can get sponsors... or sell cookies!

        IRC, a launch is ~100K. So it’s doable… maybe we can get Concordia to start their own CubeSat Program. It would fit nicely within Space Technologies and there is more than likely plenty of Quebec and corporate funding for such an endeavour. It would be a boost for this province.

        If Geocentrix has trouble acquiring a launch, we may simply have to wait. SpaceX and other private companies may be able to provide launches, of course.
