ONION PROJECT
The onionsat story
Our team's first satellite was a 3 decileter soda-can-sized CanSat satellite, built for the 2024 national CanSat competition.
CanSat, or constant learning.
Building a satellite is cool, but building satellites is not just for nerds. The main target group for the competition STEM interested students, but all hands are needed! We managed to make a satellite without any previous technical experience. From soldering to marketing and other soft skills, all the skills needed for a competitive project could be learned in the competition.
The competition
Our team was selected in the top ten, so our CanSat was selected by BME Suborbitals Athena rockets, christened the "rocket", sent him soaring. Our satellite rose to an altitude of 1 km, successfully completing its mission. Our team won a special prize for its technological work.

About the competition
Building a space device is a multifaceted, yet very exciting task. Our first satellite Hungarian Astronautical Society organised by the 2024 CanSat for competition we built it. The top 10 teams (including our team) in the competition will have their satellites built in the BME Suborbitals with rockets from a rocket-building team, was launched to an altitude of about one and a half kilometres.
Our satellite
In the development of our CanSat, we have focused on durability. We succeeded in creating a satellite that far exceeded the original safety and robustness requirements. Our satellite can be used in metrological areas, because it can tidal currents also to examine.
