      Introduction

      Currently there are many asteroids for which light curves exist but which classifications do not, ideally spectroscopic investigations would be performed on each of these bodies in turn to define their spectroscopic class. This project aims to link the photometric propert... Visit Project

      We aim to produce a range of solutions that explore the problem of how it might be possible to personalise the experience of space travel through the clothes and accessories that an astronaut takes into space with them. The project aims to produce a flatpack suitcase of clothing and personal e... Visit Project

      The project aims to develop a web based app which uses inertial and GPS data from a cell phone, with the telemetry data from the ISS in order to give the opportunity to the user to localise the ISS in the sky. The web based application could be launched from any web browser, enabling any cell ... Visit Project

      We establish a set of rules for LASSIE compliant autonomous devices and with a prototype built from Lego EV3 and cunning software attempt to create the required capabilities and behaviours to recognise communication failures, assess damage and where needed fetch appropriate assistance.

      We aimed to develop a way to 3D print items such as syringes in space. These syringes needed to be accurate, simple and reliable. Printing allows us to create custom volume syringes with multiple uses using both rigid and flexible materials.
