You\ndon't need to be an expert on every aspect of spacecraft design. As an\nexample, I'd never pretend to be a structures or mechanical expert, but\nI can tell when there's no place to attach an antenna or mount a PC\nboard. Often you'll find you're radio skills are exactly what they need\nmost.\n\nBelow is the general annoucement describing the FUNSAT competition.\n\nPlease let me know if you're able and willing to help work with either\nof these potential competition teams.\n\nTnx & 73,\nLee-KU4OS\n\n\n************************\n\nThrough a grant from NASA, the Florida Space Grant Consortium (FSGC) is\npleased to offer this competition for your consideration. The FUNSAT\n(Florida University SATellite) is a pico-satellite with a mass of 1 Kg\nand the size of 10 x 10 x 10 cm3. The main objectives of this\ncompetition are promotion of an interdisciplinary project for systems\nengineering, supporting a test-bed for advanced technologies such as\nMEMS, and promoting advanced study and career development for Florida\nstudents in the field of aerospace. \n\n This competition will allow students to work closely with\nprofessionals from the field on a project that will have great\nsignificance in the coming years. The competition will include the\ndesign, fabrication, and a possible launch into space for the winning\ndesign. In the conceptual design (first round), competitors will be\nprovided with technical support by FSGC, NASA and space industries. \n\nThe finalists will be fully supported for their detailed design and\nbuilding of their design, which are all material and launch costs as\nwell as a technical workshop at the Kennedy Space Center. Indeed, it\nwill be an ideal project for your senior design class. Please refer to\nthe following website for more information:\nhttp://fsgc.engr.ucf.edu/funsat/. The website will be updated.\n\nThe first and second competitions have been completed successfully and\neach one of the designs is a credit to their respective universities and\ndesign teams. We hope that your participation will exceed even those\ndesigns in innovation, design quality, and professionalism. The\nschedule for the 2006-2007 competition is as follows:\n\n1.Fall Semester\na.Notice Of Intent due September 22, 2006\nb.Conceptual design submitted before semester break\n\n2.Spring Semester\na.Finalists announced early January\nb.Workshop for design presentations\nc.Engineering Model of a demonstration subsystem or payload (only one\nsubsystem is required) due along with final detail design report (DDR)\nd.Winner announced near end of Spring semester\n\n3.Summer Semester\na.Winning team supported for Flight model construction\nb.Testing and evaluation\n\n4.Launch\n\n\nSincerely,\n \nTeam FUNSAT\n\n\n\n", "attachments": [] }
