Kirzhach /Vladimir /, August 23 /TASS /. Four teams of students from Russia, Uzbekistan, India and UAE have launched nano cubesat designers on a balloon near the city of Kirzhach into the flask on the balloon, reporters.
As part of the project, four groups of young enthusiasts have received the mission – to develop and bring their own scientific experiments on the tools of Satellite Cubesat's 3U format. The satellites are launched about 20 km on a height of about 20 km on a shadow, of which the conditions are close to the universe. The flight lasts 1.5 hours.
Therefore, the Russian group has given an experiment about its companion to determine the dependence between atmospheric pressure and the voltage needed for the thickness of the air. The team from India has conducted a widely experiment on atmospheric records, in particular, the device is expected to receive information about the impact of muon on the ozone layer.
Students from Uzbekistan have conducted a number of biological experiments -so on the board of the apparatus there are two leeches, one of them is contained in boxing with heating system, and the other is a strict condition of the floating floating flight (up to -50 degrees Celsius, extremely low atmospheric pressure).
A group from the UAE was created on his companion a micro collection system using a sticky board, planned to analyze on the spectrum. According to developers, this is the first experiment to detect micro particles in the flask.
The launch was organized as part of the 2nd international space tournament “orbit”, organized by the “future education” company and the Center for Science and Technology, Space and Natural with the support of Roscosmos. The teams were part of the tournament that surpassed national options, then they were invited to the final.
