Hi guys! This is the new configuration of MISSUS! After the CDR in ESTEC (Netherlands) we have re-defined the layout and from now on the boom will be separate from the “experiment box” :) , fixed directly on the gondola rails!

Spring news

Hello, everybody!
It’s time to update our website and give some news about how the work is going on!
We had such a really busy April that we had so little time to update you!
Let’s start with the deadlines of the REXUS-BEXUS programme. We updated MISSUS SED (Student Experiment Documentation) with version 1-2 by the 20th of April, then we received the feedback from the RX-BX board.
Then it was time for the CDR (Critical Design Reviews) deadline: the 1st of May! Just yesterday we submitted the new SED version 2-0. Now we are preparing for the discussion that will be in ESTEC (Nordwijk-the Netherlands).
We had also some “light” work: presentations of MISSUS experiment in high schools in Veneto (Italy) to spread MISSUS about and also involve the students to pursue engineering and scientific courses and take part in the future educational ESA programmes.
