I understand that Wallops Island sent up a CUBE SAT fabricated by a high school.
I would like to know if there are any articles about this, pictures etc. that I can bring back to our school system.
God Bless

Amazing what passes for a HamSat these days.
Anybody with a browser, Ham or otherwise, can submit messages which (provided they are approved) will be uploaded FOR you. Also, anyone with a suitable UHF receiver can listen to the downlink!
Why, the only way this could get better is if the downlink were available directly via the browser, so we could use this satellite without the bother of setting up any sort of station at all!
