Hey! Welcome to the Stanford Satellite Team! Whether you're an incoming frosh, alumni, PhD, or even not a part of the Stanford community, we're glad you're here. Our current mission '''Project Sequoia''' is a 3U (about the size of a long shoe box) fully in-house imaging satellite that will demonstrate CubeSats as a user-defined service with changeable machine learning models.
 
===Stanford Affiliated===
 
If you're a Stanford student, professor, or affiliate we'd love for you to [[How_to_Join_SSI|join the SSI Sats community]]! Once you've joined our slack messaging hub, join the [https://ssi-teams.slack.com/messages/satellites satellites channel] and don't be shy.

If you're not affiliated with Stanford but are interested in the team and our project, please email the team leads Flynn Dreilinger and Grant Regen (flynnd@stanford.edu, gregen@standford.edu).
 
== Sub-Teams and Schedules ==
 
=== Teams ===
 
*[[Sequoia structures#Heading|'''Structures''']] — Learn to create the structure of our satellite via aluminum laser-cutting, 3D printing, and computer-aided design (CAD)
 
**Fall Meeting Schedule: ''Thursday XX-XXPT''
 
 
 
*[[Sequoia Satellite Software#Heading|'''Software''']] — Learn to program our onboard flight computer and science computer, write machine learning models, and design a full software architecture.
 
**Fall Meeting Schedule: ''Thursday XX-XXPT''
 
 
 
*[[Satellite Avionics#Heading|'''Avionics/Electrical Engineering''']] — Learn electrical engineering in space, make your own camera, radio, solar panels, and design your own custom circuit boards (we'll even teach you how to make rave lighting for your room).
 
**Fall Meeting Schedule: ''Thursday XX-XXPT''
 
 
 
*[[Sequoia GNC#Heading|'''Guidance, Navigation, and Control''']] — Learn how to guide our satellite where practical physics and coding meet, control pointing of the system by interacting with the Earth's magnetic field, and unspin the satellite after a rocket shoots it out. 
 
**Fall Meeting Schedule: ''Thursday XX-XXPT''
 
 
 
*[[Sequoia Systems#Heading|'''Systems/Policy''']] — Talk with top space representatives in both government and industry, attend local satellite and space conferences, and learn how to launch a satellite safely and legally :). Also, check out SSI Policy Team on the slack.
