Ngisazikhumbula izinsuku zami njengomfundi wasesikoleni esiphakeme, mhlawumbe asizange siphokophele phezulu kangako ngezizathu ezahlukahlukene, kepha ngiyasikhumbula njengesikhathi lapho noma yini yayingenzeka. Yilokhu iqembu elenziwe ngabafundi abayisikhombisa abavela ku- IBurgo-Ignacio Echeverria Institute U-de Las Rozas (Madrid) ngemuva kokwethula iphrojekthi futhi wanikezwa ngu- hhayi ngaphansi kuka I-European Space Agency.
Njengoba ukwazi ukubona, yize ubuhle bungase bungabonakali budlabha kangako, lokho esinakho phambi kwethu akuyona into engaphansi kwe-minisatellite eyenziwe ngokusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe obunjengokuphrinta kwe-3D. Inhloso yale phrojekthi bekuwukwenza ifayili le- satellite usayizi wekani le-soda ukuthi, ngemuva kokwethulwa, yakwazi ukuqoqa idatha ngesikhathi sokwehla kwayo ibuyela eMhlabeni.
Iqembu labafundi abavela I-Instituto Burgo-Ignacio Echeverria ithola umklomelo ovela ku-ESA nge-minisatellite yayo ehlaba umxhwele
Ngokusobala futhi ngokusho kwalaba baklami beprojekthi, i-minisatellite ibhajadiswe ngegama elithi "I-burgonet isikhala”, I-artifact enesisindo cishe I-330 amagremu ukwakheka kwayo kwangaphandle okwenziwe ukuphrinta kwe-3D okwathi, ngesikhathi kwethulwa, kwafinyelela ezingeni eliphakeme kakhulu le- Amamitha angu-730.
Inhloso enkulu yalesi siphuphutheki kwakungeyona enye into, ngesikhathi kwethulwa, ukukwazi ukukala, ukusebenzisa izinzwa ezahlukahlukene, lokushisa futhi i ingcindezi yasemkhathini. Njengenhloso yesibili, iqembu likwazile ukukala imisebe ye-ultraviolet, izinkambu zikagesi, amazinga e-CO2, ukuthola iphuzu elihle lokufika okungenzeka futhi liphinde lidlulise imininingwane yokwethulwa ne-telemetry ngevidiyo.
Ngokuqondene nomncintiswano uqobo, kufanele kuqashelwe ukuthi ukuthola indondo efana nale akuyona enye into ngaphandle kwesithelo sezinyanga eziningi zomsebenzi, hhayi ize, ngasikhathi sinye. kwethulwe amaqembu ayi-15 avela kulo lonke elaseYurophu ukuthi, phambilini, kwakumele babe ngabanqobi besigaba esedlule esasibanjwe ezingeni likazwelonke.
