We’re in the Coventry observer!!!

T-10 Days Till Final UK Launch.
With finals rapidly approaching we're finalising the code for the MRM and FLM respectively.
Thanks to this finalisation period we were able to identify a flaw with our design and patch it before it was too late.
T-14 Days Till Final Uk launch.
Christmas came early this year.
Final boards fully operable, testing will soon commence.

T-15 Days Till Final UK Launch.
Today we finalised our antenna designs and ensured that they are at the optimal operating frequency for final launch day.

T- 17 Days Till Final UK Launch!
With the launch rapidly approaching we're beginning the integration of all of our PCBs into our can and double-checking our tolerances. The following photos show the integration of our comms PCB and just how snug all of our components need to sit in order for our can to function.
We have two other members of the team who were unable to attend the day we filmed this, those two people are josh and will who take care of the code for the different components of the can and the ground station.
T-20 days until final launch!!
Today we had lots to do due to the fact that the final launch is only 20 days away. We started off by going through our report to see what needs to be added or changed, on top of this we also 3D printed some parts for our can as-well as soldering components onto our motherboards.
T- 21 days Till Final Launch.
We hope you enjoy this small documentary-style video of our day at the test launch site.

Our PCBs have arrived!!!
The first two PCBs are responsible for controlling the solar panel module.
The last PCB controls the flight and landing module.

T-24 days till launch
Following the news from ESA, we're hard at work rebuilding our lost cansat.
Currently tuning our antennas to the correct frequency to ensure proper transmission.
More news to follow.
Last night, we launched our ESA - European Space Agency CanSat competition entry to an audience of over 30 people! Check out our mini-documentary to find out more about Team Boreas!

We’re having a great night launching our entry to this year’s CanSat competition! Watch this space for more exciting updates!
Come and join us next week!

Great team meeting tonight!!!
