Introduction 

Welcome to our Blog! 

CanSat is a competition organised by the European Space Agency. Teams from all member states of the EU are entitled to submit an entry. The aim of the competition is to promote Physics & Engineering amongst European teenagers. 

The competition requires students to construct a satellite within the parameters of a soft drinks can. There are many components to the competition including Primary Mission (satellite equipment), Secondary Mission (additional sensors etc.) and Public Outreach. 

This is Crescent College's second time entering the competition. The school's first entry did exceptionally well and represented Ireland. We hope to build upon this legacy!
