Our ultimate goal is to launch a science based nanosatellite with NASA’s cubesat launch initiative. In doing so, we will first prepare a package of our payload and communications system. Potentially collaborating with the Columbia University weather balloon team, this package will be sent to the stratosphere, where we will collect data about our package’s dynamic and thermodynamic behavior.
To achieve this, the payload team will first run several iterations of the experiment as proof of concept of the varaibility of the coefficient of emissivity of e-paper with respect to the density of pixels on the screen.
