I think that space science and engineering, in particular the small satellite system, allows for the creation of innovative science and engineering education programs at K-12, undergraduate, and graduate levels,\u201d says Loveless.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The team created an electronics development kit based on small satellite technology. Their DIY kit includes a 3D-printable small satellite model and electronics that meet small satellite standards.<\/p>\n<p>While students, or anyone, could use this technology for a number of applications,\u00a0graduate student Matt Joplin explains, students could easily use it for a high altitude balloon. With the technology, students would launch their own high altitude balloon and then receive real-time information on the ground about altitude, location, pressure, and temperature. Students could use that to study gravity, weather, or imaging, to name a few.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe limit is the imagination.
