Thanks to a new partnership with Open Cosmos, the competition expanded to include a build and test phase, where competing teams had the opportunity to design and construct a nanosatellite payload. Unfortunately, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, this phase was not able to go ahead. Instead, teams were challenged to conduct a more detailed mission design, expanding their skills in space mission design. A live competition day was held online with teams presenting their designs to a panel of industry experts. Team GU Orbit, from the University of Glasgow, were the overall winners, and team SELENE, from Cranfield University, were awarded best presentation on the competition day.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"dbd0523\" class=\"eae-timeline-item elementor-repeater-item-dbd0523 custom-image-style-no image-position-\">\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eae-tl-item-meta-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eae-tl-item-meta\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2018-2019\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eae-tl-icon-wrapper\" id=\"dbd0523\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eae-icon eae-icon-item_icon eae-icon-view-framed eae-icon-shape-circle eae-icon-type-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eae-icon-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-satellite\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eae-tl-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eae-tl-item-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eae-width-100 eae-tl-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eae-content-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eae-tl-item-meta-wrapper-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eae-tl-item-meta-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2018-2019\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"eae-tl-item-title\"><\/h3><div class=\"eae-tl-content-innner\"><p>Our second Satellite Design Competition in collaboration with SSPI saw an increase in teams participating from four entrants to eight.
