| Experiment with existing code base || The current setup includes the Raspberry Pi as well as our PyCubed flight controller. This task is about looking at our existing software, actually running it on our hardware and playing around with it to get a better sense of what direction you want to take this project. This task will involve lots of close contact with the existing team members, who will help you get set up and explain any open questions. || Medium || Python, CircuitPython, Redis, Microservices, PyCharm, SSH, Terminal || [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZWL9MvW_2tVnGzFI_tQNpB-c1mfshqX5QQEkKCeFUYI Specification]

| Connect sensors to flight computer || Our sensors (sun sensors, altitude sensors, etc.) are connected to the board with various hardware mechanisms (like I2C). Some of them need to be configured to be able to use them with our software. You will be writing the code to interact with these sensors.  || Medium ||  Circuitpython, PyCharm, Terminal, Hardware || [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VB5gb-bnp_UFKpjpO19iZd7fr1wIAzVZ1ZSG1nAKx44 Specification]

| Define Radio Message-Passing Format || We have a working radio, but we still need to the format of the data we send and the commands we receive. This will also involve researching existing satellites and protocols. || Medium ||  Circuitpython, PyCharm, Radio, LoRa|| [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vPeG-qkxTSYBcFwMqxWHhPL9Y8wMy-m9YjU5WEven1A Specification]
