We have a reason to celebrate !!!

Today, after the very interesting tour of the Airbus, the award ceremony took place. Beforehand is to say that the distance between the teams was very tight.

We are pleased to announce that we have been awarded the 1st place in the German CanSat competition 2016. In doing so, we have qualified for the participation as representatives of Germany in the European competition.

We are all very much looking forward to it and would like to thank our sponsors - "encoway" and our school club -, which have made our success possible.
