The Buccaneers

A huge thank you to Barry Lunn, CEO of Arralis, for sponsoring our team for the CanSat Competition.

Yesterday we worked on our programming and also tested our secondary mission components.

This morning we visited another primary school and have been working on our parachute and presentation since.

The Buccaneers would like to say a big thank you Tom Meany from Analog Devices, for all of his advice regarding our project.

Also during the Easter we have went in to work on our parachute and on our secondary mission.

Last week we did a presentation to primary schools on the eclipse and our CanSat project. We are planning to go to more primary schools after Easter as a part of our outreach for the project. We are also hoping to get an article in the astronomy Ireland magazine.

Big thank you to David Moore from Astronomy Ireland for coming in to talk about our Galaxy and on the Solar Eclipse to our school members and for listening to us about our CanSat project. He has offered to let us get in touch with members of the Astronomy Ireland magazine and talk to them about our project. Once again thanks to David and all the Astronomy Ireland group.
