Ember-1

Ember-1 is a new, open-source, 3D printed satellite that is being developed to study the Earth's upper atmosphere. The satellite is being built by a team led by Andrew Jones, a software engineer at Fireworks, a startup that specializes in building and launching small satellites. The team is using a combination of open-source hardware and software to design and build the satellite. The satellite will use a Raspberry Pi computer to run its onboard software and will be equipped with sensors to measure temperature, pressure, and other environmental factors. The team is planning to launch the satellite on a Falcon 9 rocket in 2023.
