T.O.R.N.A.D.O - James Clemens HS

We are a team that is designing a payload to be sent to the moon Titan and analyze its storms as part of inSPIRESS, a competition hosted by UAH.

We have some serious storms in our area!

We had a virtual meeting today about the engineering anaylisis while the storms raged outside our homes. So basically we talked about Titan storms despite an Earth storm!

We hope all that are being hit by these storms will stay safe!

For those of you who might be a bit lost on what Titan is, check out this video!

Meet our first concept, Bullet!

Bullet would be dropped from a drone into Titan's surface, and open up to reveal instruments to gather data from a passing storm!

[T.O.R.N.A.D.O - James Clemens HS @tornado_jchs]

Designing a piece of technology to go to the edge of space and retrieve information is harder than it sounds (which is saying a lot)

However, we have managed to come up with some concepts for our payload that would analyze Titan's storms with relative ease!

Time for the first-ever weekly Titan fun fact!
Today we talk about Titan's lakes!

We've told you what part of Titan we are going to analyze, but we haven't said how we reached that! It wasn't simply as easy as picking one out of a hat! (that rhymes)

We carefully weighed our options and choose the best topic from our choices using this table!
