Hands-on satellite design for the next generation
Introducing space engineering education to middle and high school students through real-world CanSat satellite projects.
The Program
What is CanSat?
A simulation of a real satellite, integrated within the volume and shape of a soft drink can. CanSats offer students their first practical experience of a real space project, combining engineering principles with hands-on learning.
"Space is an inspirational concept that allows you to dream big"
