Build It

This page will be continuously updated with new information and resources to help you design and build your own cubesat experiment.

 

Teachers in Space focuses on training teachers how to build Arduino based Cubesats with their students. We hold in-person workshops, online meetings, and other virtual opportunites to walk teachers through the process of assembling and programming an Arduino-based experiment.

 

If you are interested in hosting a TIS workshop for teachers, or another type of training, please send an email to [email protected].
