MISSIONOVERVIEW
Mission• Mission Overview
– Our objective is to fly a GoPro camera, two digital cameras, a gyroscope and a variety of other sensors
– We expect to film the entire flight to prove that 3D video is not viable in space
– We expect to film the balloon burst, and we expect to determine the degrees of rotation of Saniqua
– If we send a camera rig into space to take 3D video, then it will not produce viable 3D video.
Mission
• We are doing our mission because:
– NASA invested much time and money in a 3D camera system for Curiosity
– This aspect of Curiosity was scraped, as it was too complicated
– We will disprove that 3D cameras are viable in space
– This will save money on future projects that are considering using 3D cameras
Mission StatementOur Mission is to disprove the viability of 3D imaging in Space. We will take images using two identical cameras of the assent of our satellite, Shaniqua, of the balloon burst, and of the descent of our satellite. Using these images, we will attempt to create 3D pictures. In addition, we will use a gyroscope to determine the attitude and spin rate of our satellite.

How we will complete our mission
– THIS IS HOW WE WILL COMPLETE OUR MISSION!• We will fly 2 canon SD780 cameras side by side in a custom rotating
camera rig• Will create 3D images and video with footage from tests and flight • Will fly a gyroscope; it will collect data for the entirety of the flight• Will use gyroscope data to determine attitude and spin rate of satellite
during tests and flight• Will fly temperature, pressure, and humidity sensors • Will use data to determine environmental variables during tests and
flight • Will ensure all components are within weight and cost budget• Shaniqua will survive tests, flight and will be in condition to fly again
after first flight• Sensors will be properly calibrated before testing and flight, will be
determined to be functioning properly• We will test our structure extensively to ensure that it will survive the
most violent flight conditions
TESTING
Testing Plan• We have not yet tested our payload. Tests commence November 2nd
• Planned Tests• Structure Test – Drop and kick structure from
various heights with mass models of components inside• Vibration/Whip Test – Swing structure around,
shake violently, mass models and gyroscope installed• Image Test – All cameras shall be activated by
the Arduino and shall take pictures/video to make sure they work• Functional/Final Integration/Cold Test – All
elements of satellite combined, shall be placed in a cooler and shall undergo cold testing to ensure all systems function at very cold temperatures

EXpected Results• Expected Test results– Structure is expected to survive testing with
minimal damages– All sensors are expected to record accurate test
data– Camera rig is expected to rotate autonomously
during testing– Canon cameras are expected to take
synchronized video– Internal temperature is expected to remain above
20 degrees Celsius– We expect our systems to remain functional
during and after cold testing
