Basic Assembly Workshop
​
In this 2-hour workshop, students learn about space technology, why space matters, and space careers in Australia.
They then assemble the RASCube replica satellites, learn about the sensors inside, and get an understanding of how satellites function.
​​
Ideal for grades 7-12.
Tethered Weather Balloon Workshop
​
In this 2.5-hour workshop, students get a deep understanding of how satellites work, why they matter, and engage in exciting experiments.
Once students have assembled RASCube, they'll have the chance to connect one to a tethered helium-filled weather balloon and launch it into the sky, collecting data from the flight.
​
Ideal for grades 8-12.
"Our students loved learning about satellites and hearing Ed's story from school student to entrepreneur! The session was easy to arrange, and Ed was flexible to work around our goals and the students areas of interest. One of the parents even sent me an email to explain how her son found the session really exciting and engaging.
We ran two sessions, and all of the students were able to successfully build a real satellite!"

Case Study:
New Space Workforce Xperience (2023)
Our biggest workshop to date took us all the way to Optus headquarters in Sydney, Australia.
Over 50 students assembled RASCube kits, before watching them float into the air aboard a huge helium-filled weather balloon!
​
The students were able to collect the data, take turns in controlling the balloon, and learn about everything from space technology to the science behind weather balloons.
