The CanSat competition is a design-build-fly competition that provides teams with an opportunity to experience the design life-cycle of an aerospace system. The CanSat competition is designed to reflect a typical aerospace program on a small scale. It includes all aspects of an aerospace program, from the preliminary design review to post-mission review. The mission and its requirements reflect various elements of actual-world missions, including telemetry requirements, communications, and autonomous operations. Each team is scored throughout the competition on real-world deliverables such as schedules, design review presentations, and demonstration flights. https://www.cansatcompetition.com/index.html
