WHAT ARE SOME OF THE PROBLEMS

TEAM WORK?
Cutting-edge technology is getting back to nature. A company
has tested a new satellite that is predominantly made from
plywood. The satellite is called Woodsat. It is the brainchild of
engineer Jari Makinen, co-founder of a Finnish company called
Arctic Astronautics. It is just 10cm cubed in size. He has
already successfully tested his DIY, but high-tech, device in the
stratosphere. He attached it to a weather balloon, which took it
to an altitude of 30km above Earth - just before the endless
expanse of space itself. The balloon exploded (as planned) and
Woodsat safely parachuted back to Earth. Mr Makinen happily
reported that all communications equipment survived the harsh
conditions
