The analysis

The claim states that CubeSat telescopes exist and require compact optics and precise attitude control systems. Papers [2], [5], [6], and [9] directly support aspects of this claim by describing CubeSat-scale optical telescopes, compact instrument accommodations, and attitude sensors or mechanical stability analyses suited for nanosatellites. There are no papers contradicting the claim.
