The increase in space exploration missions in recent years gave way to the development of a volume-efficient and cost-effective nanosatellite like the cube satellite (CubeSat) which can be developed and fabricated in a relatively short time. With its size and design, CubeSat parts like casings can be produced and assembled through 3D printing to produce inexpensive satellites. Research in this area is undeniably important to maximize the rapid development of CubeSats. While progress has been made, challenges remain in applying 3D printing technology in the development of CubeSats. In this paper, the current status regarding the advancement of 3D printing for CubeSat applications is discussed. First, important issues about the common materials for CubeSat and potentially 3D printing materials for CubeSats are addressed. Second, 3D printing CubeSat parts through the feasible structure design models by combining material and parameter designs are explored from a wide range of references. And also, 3D printing of cube satellite parts by DOST AMCen and STAMINA4Space has also been demonstrated. Lastly, an outlook on the future direction of the 3D printed CubeSat for the Philippines space program is provided.Keywords: Cube satellite, CubeSat, 3D printing, high-performance polymers
