NEW BEGINNINGS
'IF IT FLIES, IT COUNTS'
WHAT IS EXOSPACE?
Well, its quite a long story but in short, me(Anuk), the founder of Exospace wanted to start a project of sending a rocket called 'Skyro' to around 3000ft above the UK and as of now it is under development (scroll down to watch progress). But im thinking of making Exospace into a --real-- company if you know what I mean so with the help of my friends Oliver, Rares and Josh watch our journey as we reach sky high.
WATCH PROGRESS ON MY CHANNEL
Including other creative projects such as coding with Arduinos and astrophotography.
Projects are put into Playlists for your comfort.
SKYRO™ V1,2,3,4....ect
Skyro will be a series of rockets that will be fuelled by solid propellant and will slowly increase in altitude launch by launch. Be prepared for very long delays, BUT each step will be thrilling.
The first of all launches will be Skyro V1 which is 95cm tall (3.12ft), and uses a modified K123 rocket propellant which is a mix of sucrose, potassium nitrate and aluminium powder in a 3:6:1 ratio. We are aiming for around 3000ft in altitude, but hey, even if it does not, it will be pretty cool to see and again 'if it flies, it counts'.

OPAL FLIGHT COMPUTER
The flight computer on Skyro logs altitude, pressure (obviously) and temperature. It can also fire parachutes and ignite the rocket motor with the onboard pyros. Its main components are the Arduino Nano, MS5611 Barometer/Altimeter and a MicroSD card reader.
