\"Warwick<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0Warwick University Satellite Team (WUSAT ) launched their\u00a0 prototype satellite on a weather balloon into the stratosphere near Welshpool, Wales. Over a 2 hour flight, the satellite reached an approximate height of 30km above the Earth\u2019s surface, at which point the balloon burst.\u00a0 Their parachute inflated and carried the prototype safely back to Earth.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0WUSAT\u2019s \u00a0PCB, stacked with the two cameras, mounted externally, took amazing <\/span>photos<\/span><\/span><\/a>, that they wanted to share with the SolidWorks community.<\/p>\n

With a successful first year, \u00a0team members, \u00a0Benedict Donnellan, Mark Dooner, Ed Bilson, Jinesh Patel, Ville Konsala, Kristin Vollen, Elliott Baxter, Nicole Blake, Rich Young, Jonathan Moss and Bill Crofts continue on their next out of this world<\/i> journey.\u00a0 Thank you for using SolidWorks.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
