Help Team 3489 win a European Space Agency Video Contest
 

After 10 years of accelerating around the sun 5 times and heading into deep space to rendezvous with a comet, the Rosetta spacecraft needs to “wake up” to begin preparations for a soft landing (the first spacecraft to do so).

To highlight this milestone, the European Space Agency is sponsoring a “Wake up Rosetta” video contest. The winning videos (by vote) will get cool prizes from the ESA and possibly even a trip to their Space Operations Centre in Darmstad Germany.

For our video we attached an SD card to a Frisbee and used our 2013 Ultimate Ascent robot to send our wake-up shout to Rosetta.

Please follow this link, scroll down and vote for our video. Thanks! :D

Re: Help Team 3489 win a European Space Agency Video Contest
 

I forgot to mention the contest is still going on, so you have until the 20th, if your team wants to submit a video.

Best case scenario: You win and a student gets a trip to ESA's Space Operations Centre in Germany!

Worst case scenario: You don't win, but you have another cool thing to list on your Chairman's Award entry.
