    Hi all,
    We have an Ask Me Anything running at the moment with the team behind Ireland's first satellite, EIRSAT-1 which I thought some of you might find interesting - why not head over and ask a question or read what they've been asked so far? :)

    You'll find the thread here.

    Thanks!

    Students, academics and industry mentors at University College Dublin (UCD) and Queen’s University Belfast (QUB) are currently designing Ireland’s very first satellite, EIRSAT-1. The Educational Irish Research Satellite 1 was chosen as part of the Fly Your Satellite! program in May 2017 as one of 6 student led teams to take part in the program. This satellite is a 2U CubeSat, which is a type of small research satellite.
    Student opportunity. Surveys. Papers. Other research assignments welcome in Popular Science forum.
