2. MISSION OVERVIEW

3. Mission Mission Overview – Our objective is to fly a GoPro camera, two digital cameras, a gyroscope and a variety of other sensors – We expect to film the entire flight to prove that 3D video is not viable in space – We expect to film the balloon burst, and we expect to determine the degrees of rotation of Saniqua – If we send a camera rig into space to take 3D video, then it will not produce viable 3D video.

4. Mission We are doing our mission because: – NASA invested much time and money in a 3D camera system for Curiosity – This aspect of Curiosity was scraped, as it was too complicated – We will disprove that 3D cameras are viable in space – This will save money on future projects that are considering using 3D cameras

5. Mission Statement Our Mission is to disprove the viability of 3D imaging in Space. We will take images using two identical cameras of the assent of our satellite, Shaniqua, of the balloon burst, and of the descent of our satellite. Using these images, we will attempt to create 3D pictures. In addition, we will use a gyroscope to determine the attitude and spin rate of our satellite.

6. REQUIREMENTS #Objective 1, Level 1Reference # 1.1Satellite Shaniqua shall fly a Gyroscope that will collect data continuously for the entire duration of the flight. 1 1.2The data collected by the gyroscope shall be recorded and used to determine our satellite’s attitude and spin rate. 1 #Objective 2, Level 1Reference # 2.1Our satellite Shaniqua shall be attached to a hydrogen balloon that shall carry our satellite to an altitude of 30km. 2 2.2Shaniqua shall be attached to a rope that is connected to the Balloon via a tube running through the center of our satellite. 2 2.3Shaniqua shall use washers and clips to keep it stable on the rope.2 #Mission Objectives, Level 0 Requirements.Origin 0Test ability to produce 3D images in a near space environment.Mission Statement 1Determine attitude and rotation of our satellite during the entire flight.Mission Statement 2Our Satellite shall reach an altitude of 30 km.RFP 3Keep total weight under 1125g and total money spent $250.RFP 4Keep internal temperature of Satellite above -10 C.RFP 5Record environmental variables.RFP 6Ensure the safety of all members of the team.RFP 7BalloonSat must be able to fly again.RFP

7. #Objective 5, Level 1Reference # 5.1Our Satellite shall have an external and internal temperature sensor that shall continuously collect data for the duration of the flight. 5 5.2Our satellite shall have a pressure sensor that shall continuously collect external pressure data for the duration of the flight. 5 5.3Our satellite shall have an internal humidity sensor that shall collect data continuously for the duration of the flight 5 5.4Our satellite shall have a 3 axis accelerometer that shall collect data continuously for the duration of the flight. 5 5.5All data collected from the temperature sensors, pressure sensor, humidity sensors, and accelerometer shall be stored on a 2 GB SD card. 5 5.6Data collected form the temperature sensor, pressure sensor, and accelerometer shall be used to determine the altitude of our satellite as a function of time. 5 #Objective 4, Level 1Reference # 4.1Our Satellite shall have an internal heater powered by 9V batteries that shall heat the satellite for the duration of the flight. 4 4.2Our satellite shall have ½ inch foam insulation on the interior of the structure.4 #Objective 3, Level 1Reference # 3.1A weight budget shall be kept and updated weekly to ensure our satellite shall weight less than 1125g. 3 3.2A cost budget shall be kept and updated weekly to ensure our satellite cost does not exceed $250.3 Requirements

8. #Objective 6, Level 1Reference # 6.1Construction and Soldering equipment shall be used only in the proper manner and for the direct purpose of constructing our satellite. 6 6.2All construction equipment and soldering tools shall be properly stored.6 #Objective 7, Level 1Reference # 7.1The structure of our satellite shall be made of foam core and shall be held together using aluminum tape and hot glue. 7 7.2Our satellite’s structure shall remain intact during the entire flight, including the ascent, the balloon burst, the descent and 7 7.3All of our satellite’s sensors, cameras, and arduino boards shall be functioning during the duration of the flight and after landing. 7 Requirements

17. How we will complete our mission –THIS IS HOW WE WILL COMPLETE OUR MISSION! We will fly 2 canon SD780 cameras side by side in a custom rotating camera rig Will create 3D images and video with footage from tests and flight Will fly a gyroscope; it will collect data for the entirety of the flight Will use gyroscope data to determine attitude and spin rate of satellite during tests and flight Will fly temperature, pressure, and humidity sensors Will use data to determine environmental variables during tests and flight Will ensure all components are within weight and cost budget Shaniqua will survive tests, flight and will be in condition to fly again after first flight Sensors will be properly calibrated before testing and flight, will be determined to be functioning properly We will test our structure extensively to ensure that it will survive the most violent flight conditions

18. TESTING

19. Testing Plan We have not yet tested our payload. Tests commence November 2 nd Planned Tests Structure Test – Drop and kick structure from various heights with mass models of components inside Vibration/Whip Test – Swing structure around, shake violently, mass models and gyroscope installed Image Test – All cameras shall be activated by the Arduino and shall take pictures/video to make sure they work Functional/Final Integration/Cold Test – All elements of satellite combined, shall be placed in a cooler and shall undergo cold testing to ensure all systems function at very cold temperatures
