Have you ever dreamt of building a satellite? If you're between 14-19 years old, the European Space Agency invites you to participate in the CanSat school project. Teams of six are tasked with imagining, designing, building, testing and launching their own satellite. Your CanSat will be launched up to 1 km and must perform a mission and return data via telemetry to ground. For more info, check out https://cansat.esa.int
