If you do gain further insight after researching and there are no further answers, it's always okay to answer your own question. About the time before decay, there's probably quite a lot of variability depending on the particular deployed orbit's periapsis, each launch is different, and decay rate is strongly dependent on the Sun's "mood", so times of several years or even longer are certainly obtainable for cubesats. | |

What can one really do in 6 months? Also, thank you for that link towards projects that have been theorized but haven't been completed. | |
