ArduSat wants to Arduino satellite, your experiences in orbit





                 Less marking a task on the role of the international space station experience, putting your scientific aspirations in orbit can be a little tricky. Why not try crowdsourcing your way in space? ArduSat barking until this same tree, asking contributors to Kickstarter to help obtain a CubeSat Arduino out of the ground. Led by NanoSatisfi, a startup tech operating from NASA Ames Research Center, project hopes to collect sufficient funds to launch a bank a multitude of sensors and Arduino open source in orbit. The benefits for donors? Access. Levels of contribution are rewarded with emissions custom space, remote cameras on space hardware access and even use sensors of the machine to run experiments of own design of the funder. If all goes well, the team hopes to launch more satellites for the everyman, including a unit dedicated to aspiring star photographers take snapshots of celestial. Of course, it is really launch you in the stars, but you would rather be a tourist or a scientist? See the project on the mull and link source below for some time.
