  2. Mission • Collect and transmit temperature, pressure, and altitude data, as well as take a picture at 80,000 feet. • Use temperature data to activate and turn off heaters, ensuring the interior of the box is kept above 10 degrees Celsius. • Use pressure data to estimate altitude using function stored in computer, and activate camera at desired altitude. • Use the power distribution board in conjunction with the computer to activate and turn off components. • Transmit data to ground with radio, as well as store it on onboard SD Card.

  3. Results • Successfully transmitted data back to ground station, but lost reception shortly after launch • Unable to retrieve data stored due to some SD card issues. • Uncertain if camera took picture until able to retrieve data from the SD card.

  4. What We Learned • Should have used a wire harnessing system to make wire management easier and neater • An voltage monitoring system should be used on the EVK to shut down before batteries were drained • A full system run should have been done from mission start until the batteries were drained
