The Payload Enclosure is Finished!

The payload enclosure is finished. We are now waiting for the official notice of approval from our launch provider, and will then ship the payload to the space burial company we are buying payload space from. (They purchased payload sections from the launch provider, and are allowing us to have space for our payload for a low price.)

About This Project

Our team is testing the TinyDuino, which is a new, small, stackable microcontroller with low power consumption. It can be used to collect data or control systems as a tiny computer, and could be ideal for small satellites. We are testing it through logging data from a magnetometer, temperature sensor, and accelerometer to a micro SD card. This microcontroller could reduce the cost of launching small satellites by allowing them to be smaller. It could also allow standard sized craft to do more.

Blast off!
