Back in the new year to finish and launch our project. Apologies for the slow updates, work demands have meant a busy few months!

Our new GPS module has arrived! Looking forward to wiring it up on Tuesday. Fingers crossed this one works.
Our launch is moving, CAA needs 28 days notice. Good news, though - all systems are go (and working!). Blog update this week.
Look, we've built a real spaceship! In a @CadburyUK hot chocolate tin. #science

Our ROAM2 lasted 3h 20m in the freezer and recorded the most boring video ever. Next up, insulation. #science @contour_cam

We've been quiet for a couple of weeks, but good news: we now have our Contour Roam2 camera and an Intel Galileo! More news soon.

We just scored a Yupiteru MVT-7100 scanner. She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid.
