Space - The Final Frontier Camp

Thursday, July 21, 2022

Missouri University of Science and Technology

Are you ready for an intense hands-on challenge to design, build, and fly a small satellite? S&T's Space the Final Frontier Camp is unlike anything you have ever experienced. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to encounter the edge of outer space.

Your math and science skills will be used to design and construct a small spacecraft to be launched on a high altitude balloon to 100,000 feet. Throughout the week, instruction will include satellite building and testing, laboratory tours, and interviews with aerospace engineering faculty and students.

The camp will conclude with a high altitude balloon launch, during which you’ll track your satellite as it travels to the edge of space. After the satellites are recovered, you will receive images and data captured by your satellite from the edge of space that have never been seen before!
