2/2 Fieldwork was the name of the game as the girls searched through unharvested wheat fields to try to find their #CanSat. Data was successfully logged during descent for the girls to analyse this evening and present to the panel of judges tomorrow. 🇮🇪📡🚀👍🏻

Congratulations to the team from Our Lady's Bower on winning the CanSat Ireland National Final 2019! To say the competition was close would be an understatement, and the judges certainly had their work cut out for them, but the victory was certainly well deserved. #cansat2019

A slightly shaky video of the launch of the CanSats yesterday. Our poor cameraman had to run to make it 😯

We've got a shiny new rocket this year courtesy of our wonderful partners at @IrishRocketry. They volunteer their services every year to ensure students get an incredible #STEMed experience. #cansatirl2019
