In keeping with FIRST Global’s mission to empower the world’s youth to develop STEM skills, the organization did not disappoint with their new CubeSat Prototype Challenge initiative. Teams used components from a provided Arduino-based kit, delivered by FedEx, to design and build a CubeSat prototype and launch it into the lower layers of Earth’s atmosphere. The video shows the adventure unfolding, from students receiving the kits to deploying a working prototype, and the impact we can have by making STEM opportunities like these accessible.
