We were successful in making our first zero pressure balloon and our Hydrogen Generator has also been successfully tested!
Thanks to Stew Lilley and Rodger Harkess we now have the components we need to test the first N-Prize Satellite!
We are awaiting the delivery of the Satellite and will set the date as soon as we get it here in Texas.
Test to be conducted from the Rocket Ranch test site in Lampasas, Texas.

Monroe, and fellow Prometheans,

I am, as always, in awe of the skills of the N-Prize teams. I'm particularly wowed by the spin launcher, and by the satellite, and the balloon....in fact, I'm impressed by it all. Well done!

The satellite test was a complete success by the way! The tiny satellite made by Roger Harkiss did function on a coulpa missions we flew. A very strong signal! I'll post the test audio to the website soon.
