Articles about the 2012/13 successful launch were published in local newspapers across the country including the Birmingham Post, Coventry Telegraph and Gloucestershire Echo, as well as online, including on the SolidWorks Teacher Blog, run by one of our generous sponsors.

Our final newsletter from this year's team has been published online here. It describes the launch and the progress the team has made throughout the year. The team has had a very successful year and would like to thank our kind sponsors once more for their help. In October a new team will take over the project and we wish them the best of luck.

The WUSAT team would like to thank all of its sponsors for their support through our first year. Here's a photo of the entire team at last week's sponsors' lunch.

Yesterday the WUSAT team's assessed presentation went well, concluding the assessed parts of the project following the reports submitted last week. After the presentation, we had a lunch with the sponsors who were able to come and watch the presentation. We'd like to thank Harwin for providing the lunch and National Instruments, ITP Engines (ESATAN-TMS) and Lyncolec for coming along.

You can view a short video we made summarising the launch here.

Yesterday, two members of WUSAT, Ed Bilson and Nicole Blake, were interviewed live on Radio Warwick. The recording is available here.

Two members of the team will be appearing on Radio Warwick tomorrow (24th April) between 4 and 5 for an interview lasting around 10 minutes.

This has also been reported by AMSAT-UK, the amateur radio satellite organisation, here.

Articles about the project's successful launch have appeared in local newspapers across the country, including the Birmingham Post, Coventry Telegraph and Gloucestershire Echo. There has also been more articles published online, such as on the university's news feed, in the Boar and by Harwin, one of our generous sponsors.

Following last week's successful launch WUSAT have been featured in an article on The Engineer, an online magazine covering engineering and technology news. Read the article here!
