Byu video shorts selmie6/13/2023 1 thing I can’t wait to see: those antennas scanning across the sky, watching for satellites,” said BYU grad student Patrick Walton. Satellite dishes atop the Clyde Engineering Building will scan the sky for the CubeSat and download its images and data when in range. Those images and video will be transmitted back to Earth, where engineers, including those at BYU, will be listening. Later, antennas will be triggered, the radio will start up, and the nano satellites will begin sending data.ĭownload this Gallery By clicking this link you agree to our Terms & Conditions The moment BYU’s CubeSats are deployed, they will boot up in less than a second and start recording video. The 10 nanosatellites will be loaded into a variety of tubular dispensers and deployed by a pressurized spring once in space. ELaNa, which stands for Educational Launch of NanoSatellites, are mission complements selected by NASA’s CubeSat Launch Initiative (CSLI) at Kennedy Space Center that support education, scientific exploration, and technical testing which can be used for future missions. Two versions of the BYU CubeSat will join satellites from eight other universities as part of NASA’s ELaNa 20 mission, scheduled to launch sometime this month from California on Virgin Galactic’s “Cosmic Girl” spacecraft. “In other words, it’s a spacecraft selfie cam.” “It’s a satellite that is designed to take pictures of another satellite,” said BYU engineering professor David Long. The 10-centimeter CubeSat, which includes contributions from more than 60 students over a five-year period, is outfitted with cameras on all six sides and will make it possible to inexpensively detect damage on the exterior of a spacecraft that cannot be seen in other ways.

Now you can watch it here.BYU "spacecraft selfie cam" is ready to launch. One accidentally scoops a cute baby kraken out of the sea, and the pirates’ fear of the legendary sea monster spins out of control. “Stowaway,” you might recall from the earlier newsletter, is the story of two pirates. Not saying we didn’t fight and it was all perfect, but it was just such a blessing to be able to work together every day with somebody I loved,” Domino said in a BYU video. “It was such a joy to work together with him. Writer and director Ethan Briscoe is married to lead lighting artist Chelsea Domino. “Stowaway” also had a love story in the center of it. “Stowaway” also won, marking the 19th time a BYU team has won student Emmy for an animated short film. It’s one of those things that I’ll never forget and really cherish the rest of my life.” Update on ‘Stowaway’Ī few weeks ago I shared the story of “Stowaway,” the BYU student film nominated for a College Television Award in the animation category. That’s what we connect with as human beings. Honestly, it made me realize that telling stories is what matters. “My mom secretly took a video of him watching it live and when we won, he just started to cry. “My dad was actually watching the award show that night,” Richardson said. Richardson’s teammates were co-director Asher Huskinson, producer Rebekah Baker and writer Campbell George. They celebrated together when they were announced as the winners of what colloquially is known as a student Emmy. The four of them reunited two weeks ago in Richardson’s New York apartment to watch the 41st College Television Awards live online. The younger Richardson pitched the story to other students and they shot a two-minute Mustang commercial for their BYU advertising program portfolios - smack dab in the middle of the pandemic. It can propel us farther than just a place we need to go but to somewhere we want to be in life.” “As I sat at the dinner table hearing this story I thought, that’s actually really intriguing that a car can get us farther than just a physical destination but to a life destination. He didn’t have very much money at the time, so he sold his prized possession for my mom’s wedding ring. Eventually at BYU he met my mom and fell in love. His core memories growing up throughout high school and early college was with this car. He saved all his money, got a good deal on one and rebuilt it by hand. “I was sitting at Sunday dinner with my dad and he told me the story of growing up with the dream of owning a green ’67 Fastback Mustang.
