ArduSat Academy Launches 4 Week Space Experience<\/strong><\/p>\n

NanoSatisfi, LLC is pleased to announce that registration is now open for ArduSat Academy <\/a>Summer Program 2013. Ardusat Academy is an opportunity for students, hackers, makers, DIY space enthusiasts, and anyone interested in space, science, or programming to learn how to devise and prepare their own satellite-based experiment. Building on the ArduSat initiative to make space accessible to all, ArduSat Academy gives participants the tools they need to best make use of that opportunity.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn just four weeks, anyone can design and program their own space-based experiment or experience,\u201d says ArduSat Academy Program Director Merryl Azriel. \u201cThis isn\u2019t just a project to keep you busy through yet another summer: this is the real deal, with a real satellite.\u201d
\nParticipants will discover the nuts and bolts of satellite operations, explore the capabilities of ArduSat\u2019s sensor suite, learn to program and assemble Arduinos, and design and test a program to execute their experiments in orbit. This summer, participants will also be able to witness the July launch of ArduSat-1 and meet with the engineers that made it all happen.
\nThe four week program will run June 24 through July 19, with morning, afternoon, and weekend sessions available. $2000 will get you in the program, which will be held in the San Francisco metropolitan area. No prior experience is necessary. All ages 13 years and above are welcome.<\/p>\n
