2022 CanSat Competition
Tethered Payload Mission
MinneSat competed in the 2022 AAS international CanSat competition, placing 21st overall in our first entry in recent history. Despite avionics and communications failures that prevented payload deployment and data collection, the CanSat was successfully recovered and the main parachute performed reliably, laying the groundwork for stronger performance by future teams.
