Reading Time: 6 minutes Quite possibly the coolest thing we saw Raspberry Pi powering last year was ISS Mimic, a mini version of the International Space Station (ISS). We wanted to learn more about the brains that dreamt up ISS Mimic, which uses data from the ISS to mirror exactly what the real thing is doing in orbit. The…… Meet team behind the mini Raspberry Pi–powered ISS weiterlesen

ISS Mimic: A Raspberry Pi-powered International Space Station model that syncs with the real thing
Reading Time: 7 minutes A group of us NASA engineers work on the International Space Station (ISS) for our day-jobs but craved something more tangible than computer models and data curves to share with the world. So, in our free time, we built ISS Mimic. It’s still in the works, but we are publishing now to celebrate 20 years…… ISS Mimic: A Raspberry Pi-powered International Space Station model that syncs with the real thing weiterlesen
International Space Station Tracker | The MagPi 96
Reading Time: 4 minutes Fancy tracking the ISS’s trajectory? All you need is a Raspberry Pi, an e-paper display, an enclosure, and a little Python code. Nicola King looks to the skies The e-paper display mid-refresh. It takes about three seconds to refresh, but it’s fast enough for this kind of project Standing on his balcony one sunny evening,…… International Space Station Tracker | The MagPi 96 weiterlesen
Kaleidoscopic space art made with Raspberry Pi onboard the ISS
Reading Time: 2 minutes What could be the world’s first interactive art experiment in space is powered by Raspberry Pi! The experiment, named Pulse/Hydra 3, features a kaleidoscope (as seen in the video) that lights up and starts to rotate after it receives heartbeat data from its ground terminal. This artistic experiment is designed to inspire people back on…… Kaleidoscopic space art made with Raspberry Pi onboard the ISS weiterlesen
Raspberry Pi captures a Soyuz in space!
Reading Time: 2 minutes So this happened. And we are buzzing! You’re most likely aware of the Astro Pi Challenge. In case you’re not, it’s a wonderfully exciting programme organised by the European Space Agency (ESA) and us at Raspberry Pi. Astro Pi challenges European young people to write scientific experiments in code, and the best experiments run aboard…… Raspberry Pi captures a Soyuz in space! weiterlesen

Build your own Arthur satellite dish for tracking the ISS
Reading Time: 3 minutes Construct a 3D paper model of the iconic Arthur satellite dish that notifies you whenever the International Space Station passes overhead! Project_Arthur Project_Arthur is a fun project allowing you to construct a 3d paper model of the Antenna 1 dish called Arthur from Goonhilly. The model will track the location of the ISS (International Space…… Build your own Arthur satellite dish for tracking the ISS weiterlesen
Mission Space Lab flight status announced!
Reading Time: 6 minutes In September of last year, we launched our 2017/2018 Astro Pi challenge with our partners at the European Space Agency (ESA). Students from ESA membership and associate countries had the chance to design science experiments and write code to be run on one of our two Raspberry Pis on the International Space Station (ISS). Submissions…… Mission Space Lab flight status announced! weiterlesen
