- ianvorbach 5y agoAppreciate you sharing!
- llcrabtree 5y agoVery cool! Would love to learn more about what you're working on!!
- pwnOrbitals 5y agoWe're currently finishing the design of our first mission, GAMA Alpha, a 6-unit cubesat with a planned sail size of 100 meters square and the best performance of any launched solar sail (area / mass ratio of about 10). LEO launch next year to demonstrate deployment. We don't do much comms as we're fully focused on getting something to space and making it work before we sell the product :)
- chrisMyzel 5y agoI’d show something real on the site - like the even shittiest prototype would make the web presence more believable - getting to your site makes me enjoy your idea but I don’t see real people working on something, I don’t believe you’d been able to help me since I’m just immersed in a story without a product
- pwnOrbitals 5y agoThank you for the feedback. We have a lot to show, so I'll see what we can include ;)
