And we have good news: The new date for the launch campaign was announced, we're going to Kiruna in the end of September! We're very happy and are looking very much forward to the grande finale of this project! 🤩💪

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

@AimisFyt Looking great, welcome to the club! It's time for annother group picture I'd say! 😉

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

Our collegues from @AimisFyt are stepping up the printing-in-space-game! Keep up the good work! 💪

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

Meanwhile our partner team @AimisFyt is in Belgium at the @ESA__Education facilities receiving a workshop on how to build an experiment. Have a good time there, hope you're learning a thing or two 😉

[AIMIS-FYT @AimisFyt]

Thank you @ESA__Education to let us be part of the gravity related workshop. #FlyYourThesis

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

This morning we installed our second camera into the module. And just in time, the whole payload is gonna be shipped to Kiruna on Friday! So next time we see this is gonna be days before the launch. Bon vojage! #RoadToRexus ~fs

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

After yesterdays integrated payload check and some last tweaks today the Bench Test Week is over for us! Our experiment is going to be shipped together with the other modules, as an integrated payload. See you in Kiruna, Platini! 👋 #RoadToRexus #StudentsToSpace ~fs

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

And it's over! All signals are received by our module, so we're done for today! 💪

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

And we're ready for our first individual com check with the service module! With this test we check if the signals from the rocket are received by our experiment. Let's see how it goes! #RoadToRexus #StudentsToSpace ~fs

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

Good morning, we just arrived @DLR_de for our final test week, the Bench Test. A lot of communication and integrated testing will happen this week. By the end of the week we'll also hand over our experiment for shipping it to Kiruna. Let's go! 💪 #RoadToRexus #StudentsToSpace ~fs

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

We and our partner team @AimisFyt wish you a Merry Christmas! We're taking a little break for now and enjoy our Christmas party! Thank you @REXUSBEXUS, @ZARM_de, @ESA__Education and @SSCspace for this amazing year full of experience and fun!

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

Thanks a lot to @ZARM_de and @REXUSBEXUS for the hospitality, nice touch to be in Bremen around Christmas time with all it's Christmas Markets (you have A LOT of them). Looking forward to the Bench Test in Oberpfaffenhofen, which is at a little more convenient distance for us 😄

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

The week ended with a Bench Test of the integrated payload of RX27. We connected our system to FLORENCE, BLACKBOX2 and HADES to test the timeline of the rocket flight to see if we get any problems. Fortunately all went nominal, so we're ready for the last phase of the cycle! 💪

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

Last day at the @ZARM_de. Today we're gonna do a fit check with the other modules of our rocket and do some integrated testing. Gonna be really nice to see the assembled payload! #RoadToRexus #StudentsToSpace ~fs

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

Day 2 at @ZARM_de. We're doing a full inspection of the experiment after yesterdays vibration test. Today's also gonna be the individual experiment check by the @REXUSBEXUS team to see, if our experiment is safe to fly. #RoadToRexus #StudentsToSpace ~fs

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

The hardest part is over! The experiment was tested with vibration loads of up to 7 g. No parts got loose and a quick checkup reveals full functionality. Seems like we did a good job in mechanical design and simulation! #RoadToRexus #StudentsToSpace ~fs

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

Last function tests and checkup before the vibration test. It's gonna get shaky after lunch! #RoadToRexus #StudentsToSpace ~fs

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

Good Morning, looks like we're about right! Let's get this week started #RoadToRexus ~fs

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

Team AIMIS wishes you a happy second Advent! For the celebration of the day we already have four "candles".
The integration week @ZARM_de
in Bremen starts tomorrow and we are really excited about it!

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

Here you go for a little sneak peak into our electronics box. LED's, Camera and Motor are connected, comms. and power supply are working. Only thing missing are the sensors for measuring environment conditions in the module. You're looking at countless hours of hard work 💪👨‍🏭 ~fs

[Team AIMIS @REXUS 27 @AimisRexus]

We're on our way to @ZARM_de for the Integration Week. That's the first time our Experiment leaves the laboratory! In Bremen we're gonna do some testing and check if everything works properly. Fingers crossed for not loosing any parts during vibration testing! 😅 #RoadToRexus ~fs
