This is the best video you’ve ever made to me (except maybe the reaction to the Perseverance rover’s landing, that was priceless). Not only is this is a ‘simple’ yet super cool idea to get kids excited about space, you also go to the trouble to fully explain what goes into building, testing and launching a functioning satellite in an understandable way. I’ve been following SpaceX for years, so seeing their constant mission to decrease launch costs enable actual space missions by ‘everyday people’ like this one is amazing too. Huge props to you, your audience, your team and everyone else who made this possible! Go SAT GUS!
