Kitsat is a fully functional satellite that has been made for STEAM education by schools and science centers in classrooms or outside on exciting missions up to the stratosphere. Made with less pricey parts than the real satellites, it can be built, tested, and used by small teams just like its space-faring counterparts. A hands-on session with a satellite helps to understand the basics of space technology – an essential part of modern society – and the educational material adapted for different age groups links space with more earthly subjects ranging from technology to climate change.
