Slime Mold CubeSat gets into the media
A brief mention of the Slime Mold CubeSat posted last March on the AMSAT-UK and Southgatearc.org sites has been picked up by one of the Space.Com website writers, Leonard David, who has written a good article which retained a mention of amateur radio.
It's Summer in the northern hemisphereand media outlets can be short of stories at this time of year so Leonards story has in turn been picked up by a few other news outlets and hopefully that will spread. I guess the thought of Slime in Space captures the imagination.Most of the resulting stories seem to have retained the mention of amateur radio.
