Thomas took the first plane to Kiruna from Stockholm and arrived in Kiruna at 2pm. After picking up Thomas from the airport, Michael, Jeremy and Thomas went to the shopping center to buy food and further camping equipment for the upcoming drive to the base camp in the REXU12 impact area on Sunday. We'll do some more food shoping when Fredrik arrives tomorrow. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The first day on the recovery mission was the arrival day of Thomas, Michael and Jeremy to Kiruna. Jeremy and Michael flew from Frankfurt over Copenhagen, Stockholm to Kiruna while Thomas started in Glasgow with a direct flight to Copenhagen to meet up with Michael and Jeremy and then continue on the journey together. Unfortunately, Thomas’ plane from Glasgow had a technical problem during the flight and therefore had to fly back to Glasgow which caused a two hour time delay. When the plane was fixed and Thomas arrived in Copenhagen he already missed the connection flight to Stockholm and therefore also the last flight of the day to Kiruna. He had to stay a night at the airport hotel at the airport in Stockholm. This gave Thomas the chance to meet up with the leads of Suaineadh’s electronic team, Adam Wujek and Jerker Skogby, in the city center of Stockholm. It was great to hear their perspective in regards to the safe data recovery and data analysis after the recovery mission. In the mean time Michael and Jeremy arrived in Kiruna on time at 15:30, picked up the car and familiarized themselves with Kiruna. Fredrik will fly to Kiruna on Sunday morning.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left; text-indent: 0cm;">The Suaineadh experiment went missing after
the REXUS12 rocket launch on the 19</span><sup style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: left; text-indent: 0cm;">th</sup><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left; text-indent: 0cm;"> of March 2012 from Esrange in
Kiruna, Sweden. Due to the fact that the wireless connection between the
experiment and the REXUS rocket worked for a few seconds, 22 images of the free
flying experiment were collected. These images showed that the Suaineadh
experiment was fully functional and working normally. Unfortunately, the last
picture received is exactly at the beginning of the web deployment. Due to a
malfunction of the radio beacon, the experiment with the recorded data could
not be found from the recovery helicopter in March. The few received pictures of the fully
functional experiment motivated the Suaineadh team to come back to Kiruna in
summer to recover the experiment and bring it to a successful end. This time is
now! Four adventurers will head to Kiruna tomorrow to search for Suaineadh for
more than a week. The recovery crew consist of Thomas Sinn from Glasgow (UK),
Fredrik Rogberg from Stockholm (Sweden), Michael Sinn and Jeremy Molina both
from Stuttgart (Germany). The recovery mission will be carried out from the 17</span><sup style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: left; text-indent: 0cm;">th</sup><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left; text-indent: 0cm;">

the team to get prepared and to organise themselves. On Sunday, the team will
travel to the landing zone of the REXUS12 payload to establish their Base Camp.
The payload landing place lies 60km downrange from the Swedish space port
ESRANGE. Nevertheless, the recovery team needs to travel 140km on paved road,
46km on gravel road and a 4-6km hike through the Swedish wilderness in order to
get to the payload landing area. It is planned to establish a Base Camp at the
payload landing zone and start daily expeditions into zones of interest over
the following five days. The impact location of the nosecone (~1.5km to the
south) and the rocket motor (~500m to the north) are known as well and it is
assumed that the Suaineadh experiment is lying in between them. The satellite
image of the search area indicates a slightly hilly profile without forest,
mostly grass land and bushes. It is assumed that the experiment impacted the
snow cover in March and would therefore lie on top of the ground now. The team
is also bringing a metal detector in case the Suaineadh experiment lies under a
cover of leaves or grass. Luckily, there are not a lot of lakes around the
area, just one river to the south of the Base Camp. To reach into the zone IV
and V on the 4</span><sup style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: left; text-indent: 0cm;">th</sup><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left; text-indent: 0cm;"> and 5</span><sup style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: left; text-indent: 0cm;">th</sup><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left; text-indent: 0cm;"> mission day, the river needs to
be crossed by the recovery team. GPS and maps are used to navigate in the zones
to cover as much area as possible. The entire recovery mission will be well
documented by video and pictures which will be released as a documentary after
the mission. The recovery team will return to Kiruna on Saturday, the 25</span><sup style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: left; text-indent: 0cm;">th</sup><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left; text-indent: 0cm;">
of August, hopefully with the experiment in their luggage. The outcome of the
mission will be also presented at this year’s IAC in Naples (Italy) in October.
Thank you very much to our supporters: the ESA Education Office for sponsoring
our flights and the car in Kiruna and the experts of SSC and DLR for their help
in preparing for the recovery mission.</span></div>

Based on the pictures it can be confirmed that the experiment worked: CHAD got separated from the rocket, the reaction wheel started to spin up the experiment, the daughters attached to the web got releases and all electronics (CPUs, cameras, wireless, ...) on board the experiment worked. Unfortunately, wireless communication between the rocket and CHAD was lost after receiving the 18 pictures due to probably tumbling of the rocket. Therefore no pictures of the actual web deployment could be received. CHAD could't be recovered from the recovery helicopter after impact due to a radio beacon malfunction.</div>Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08623481860080824492noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457111586290292246.post-75956092405864859102012-03-18T20:11:00.003+00:002012-03-18T20:13:27.551+00:00SUAINEADH LAUNCH, MONDAY, 1300 (SWEDISH TIME)<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MiuHF8xqCkc/T2ZBnfJ1U3I/AAAAAAAACKc/HRxZGWfgDGM/s1600/IMG_0593.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MiuHF8xqCkc/T2ZBnfJ1U3I/AAAAAAAACKc/HRxZGWfgDGM/s200/IMG_0593.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5721332523254240114" /></a><span style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: monospace; font-size: 13px; text-align: -webkit-auto; ">We just had the Flight Readiness Review (FRR) of the rockets REXUS 11 and REXUS 12 and the experiments are ready for launch.

Kiruna.</p>Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08623481860080824492noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457111586290292246.post-64563382466246094742011-11-30T11:24:00.007+00:002011-11-30T11:39:54.847+00:00Suaineadh

Suaineadh team is currently getting the experiment ready for the Integration Week in Bremen from the 12<sup>th</sup> till the 16<sup>th</sup> of December. In early November Mark Uitendaal from SSC visited the team in Glasgow for the Experiment Acceptance Review (EAR) to see if the experiment is ready to be shipped to DLR/SSC/ESA. Unfortunately, an hour before the EAR the entire electronic stopped working. The Suaineadh team therefore only could show the mechanics. Based on that, the team decided to spend night and day in the workshop and finish the mechanical part of the experiment in order to be able to ship it to KTH in Stockholm asap, so that Adam, Jerker and Fredrik could search for the error and test the electron<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZOpLE6IKfuI/TtYVJ9lxsuI/AAAAAAAACGU/hrKquRPLsSk/s1600/IMG_8852.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZOpLE6IKfuI/TtYVJ9lxsuI/AAAAAAAACGU/hrKquRPLsSk/s200/IMG_8852.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5680751240870474466" border="0" /></a>ics thoroughly. The mistake was found to be just a short circuit on one of the modems as a result of changing to metal spacers. With this problem fixed, the KTH team put all their energy into Suaineadh to get it ready for the 12<sup>th</sup> of December.

During the last couple of days the 915MHz antennas have been manufactured at KTH. The picture on the left shows the radiation pattern testing of the small 915 MHz antenna. The antenna is generating a signal with the frequency of 945 MHz which results in a received signal as can be seen on the spectrum analyzer. The picture on the right shows CHAD with some of the cameras already mounted. In the meantime the team members at KTH are working hard to assemble and test the entire electronics in order to ship them to Glasgow next week Monday. After that the final assembly and testing will be carried out in Glasgow.Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08623481860080824492noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457111586290292246.post-39381295059981614452011-10-11T16:42:00.003+01:002011-10-11T16:45:19.380+01:00Let's go for a spin<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-n572HiIK9kM/TpRj6csEnII/AAAAAAAACDA/lgfTlPt4Peo/s1600/testrig2.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-n572HiIK9kM/TpRj6csEnII/AAAAAAAACDA/lgfTlPt4Peo/s200/testrig2.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5662260487296162946" border="0" /></a>The spinning test rig for the Suaineadh experiment is now finished.

Malcolm joined for a couple of hours for support as well. REXUS/BEXUS requires thermal tests that should validate Suaineadh’s performance for the environmental conditions that the experiment has to withstand in Kiruna and on its way to space. The minimum temperature required by <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nU8hxZwxiZM/TntYqsCvq4I/AAAAAAAACCo/VtWhXNlSk0w/s1600/IMG_8082.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nU8hxZwxiZM/TntYqsCvq4I/AAAAAAAACCo/VtWhXNlSk0w/s200/IMG_8082.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5655211247494212482" border="0" /></a>REXUS/BEXUS is -10C and the highest is +45C, the experiment has to work without a problem for at least 15 minutes. <p class="MsoNormal">The fist thermal test performed included the mechanical parts that could experience problems at lower or higher temperatures. Therefore the reaction wheel, the linear guide rails, the release spine, the web and the wave spring got tested. All the components worked nominal after the freezing and heating.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Wi9zMv8lUN4/TntY3U-mG2I/AAAAAAAACCw/iV14zWe_QqQ/s1600/IMG_8057.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Wi9zMv8lUN4/TntY3U-mG2I/AAAAAAAACCw/iV14zWe_QqQ/s200/IMG_8057.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5655211464641092450" border="0" /></a>The second thermal test included the electronics of Suaineadh. The electronics were booted up at room temperature and then the chamber was cooled down to -10C and the temperature was held for 15 minutes without any problem, everything worked nominal. In the next test the entire electronic was turned off and let cool down until all the components had ambient temperature (-10C). During the cold start, all the electronics turned on but the ground support software didn’t get any readings. The Suaineadh team is looking into this error at the moment in Stockholm and Glasgow to eliminate the source. Another thermal test of the entire experiment is planned for mid October anyways. The following test, where the components were heated up to +45C, was carried out without any problem. Even a hot restart at these temperatures didn’t showed any problems or anomalies.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-G0eynnhymIo/TntZCYBagrI/AAAAAAAACC4/BfdYcx0Wk6U/s1600/IMG_8069.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-G0eynnhymIo/TntZCYBagrI/AAAAAAAACC4/BfdYcx0Wk6U/s200/IMG_8069.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5655211654436782770" border="0" /></a></p>Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08623481860080824492noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457111586290292246.post-73100152230571455662011-09-17T13:57:00.003+01:002011-09-17T14:00:26.962+01:00Suaineadh’s first vacuum test<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kw5rraMF9Lk/TnSZfvv8-BI/AAAAAAAACAk/TnLdmdfKMvs/s1600/IMG_7835.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kw5rraMF9Lk/TnSZfvv8-BI/AAAAAAAACAk/TnLdmdfKMvs/s200/IMG_7835.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5653312202929403922" border="0" /></a>Suaineadh’s first vacuum test was scheduled for Thursday last week in the physics department of the University of Strathclyde. Johannes and Thomas started on Wednesday preparing the electronics for the upcoming test. The electronics were checked for their functionality and thermocouples were attached to components that were prone to overheating. Due to the nonexistence of convective cooling (cooling by air) in a vacuum, especially the CPU can heat up quickly and get damaged. The work continued until the late evening hours on Wednesday with the support from Adam and Jerker via Skype from Stockholm. <p class="MsoNormal">On the test day, all the components had to be brought over to the physics department that was <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7tnw3Iqw8bk/TnSZpGaHehI/AAAAAAAACAs/o5mZj729B5w/s1600/IMG_7855.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7tnw3Iqw8bk/TnSZpGaHehI/AAAAAAAACAs/o5mZj729B5w/s200/IMG_7855.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5653312363630656018" border="0" /></a>luckily just across a small park from the mechanical & aerospace department. The set up of the vacuum experiment took until after lunch. The first vacuum test was undertaken with the FPGA board, the two different cameras and one IMU. The test was successful, the FPGA worked fine over the 10 minute test time and the cameras and IMUs had no indication of damage. The set-up for the second test, that inherent almost the entire electronics took longer than expected. At closing time, the Suaineadh team arranged the electronics in the vacuum chamber but the measurements taken showed unusual readings even without applied vacuum. At the end of the day, the team had to postpone the test because the workshop was closing.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-UVblZZKz8Kw/TnSZwEI8tNI/AAAAAAAACA0/bhwfceRRNBU/s1600/IMG_7896.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-UVblZZKz8Kw/TnSZwEI8tNI/AAAAAAAACA0/bhwfceRRNBU/s200/IMG_7896.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5653312483280860370" border="0" /></a>The Suaineadh team is hopeful that for Monday’s thermal test, the mistake will be found and it can be preceded as planned. The next vacuum test is scheduled in three weeks from now. The Suaineadh team wants to thank Robert Dawson and Tom McCanny of the physics department for their help and advice during the vacuum test; it would have not been possible without them.</p>Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08623481860080824492noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457111586290292246.post-9558854885522131322011-09-17T13:45:00.002+01:002011-09-17T13:48:20.068+01:00Separation

In the following Jerker showed the experts how the FPGA works and Adam walked <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gDCWV8gBGf0/TmOVVmYF0tI/AAAAAAAACAE/qzYhTiHyX_Y/s1600/IMG_7745.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gDCWV8gBGf0/TmOVVmYF0tI/AAAAAAAACAE/qzYhTiHyX_Y/s200/IMG_7745.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5648522555964117714" border="0" /></a>them trough the electronic components and the ground support software. A full test run with all signals was undertaken after the explanation of the electronic components, Adam even showed the experts how to record images with five of Suaineadh’s cameras. Another test run of the software was done to show that the software can trigger a pyro cutter that releases the daughters inside CHA<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BdTndhZO-NY/TmOVm2W-uEI/AAAAAAAACAM/8BQ5YLd-4iU/s1600/IMG_7770.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BdTndhZO-NY/TmOVm2W-uEI/AAAAAAAACAM/8BQ5YLd-4iU/s200/IMG_7770.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5648522852312201282" border="0" /></a>D, this test was undertaken successfully. An overview about the mechanical progress was given by Malcolm after the daughter release test. A vibration test on the prototype structure was also performed.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>The experts were quite pleased with the progress so far and announced, after a nice lunch in Ashton Lane where Mark Uitendaal received a birthday surprise, that the Suaineadh team passed the IPR. :) Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08623481860080824492noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457111586290292246.post-37104325030448722152011-08-30T18:38:00.003+01:002011-08-30T18:52:31.353+01:00Release Spine Test<p>Another productive Integration Week day is coming to a close for the Suaineadh team, todays work was primarily focused on obtaining measurements from the Inertial Measurment Units with the FPGA board and work on the CPU board. New brackets were also designed which will be mounted in CHAD for a vibration test possibly tomorrow.</p>
<br /><p>A first test of the daughter release mechanism with the spring-pyro cutter assembly was carried out as well (see video below). Everything worked exceptionally well at this test.</p>

During the Integration Week at the University of Glasgow and University of Strathclyde the Suaineadh team will integrate most of the electronic components in the mechanical structure to test their fitting and functionality. Adam and Jerker will be supported by Malcolm, Andrew, John, Johannes and Thomas from the UK site of the experiment. The Interim Progress Review where two experts from DLR, SSNB and ESA are coming to have a look at the progress of our experiment will happen on Friday the 2nd of September. This blog will be updated almost daily for the next couple of days with stories and pictures of the Integration Week. Let the work begin...

Malcolm, Adam, Jerker and Thomas arrived in Munich on Monday morning at lovely sunny weather. The Suaineadh spend the whole afternoon and evening to prepare for the Suaineadh’s CDR presentation the next day. On Wednesday at 10:45am we had our presentation and it went quite well. Our team received a lot of good comments on the SED and experiment design.

In the afternoon all REXUS 12 teams had a discussion about interfaces and possible interferences between the different experiments. At the REXUS CDR dinner in the evening, the Suaineadh team won the 3<sup>rd</sup> place in the REXUS User Manual Pub Quiz, woohoo <span style="font-family:Wingdings;"><span style="">J</span></span>. We all got GSOC(ks) as a price. This morning we had some more presentation on pre- and post-delivery testing and an ask-the-expert session. At the moment the whole team is sitting together to discuss some of the minor issues that came up during the CDR which still need to be solved.<br /><br /><a onblur="try

experiment, including the prototype of CHAD and the Magic Hat ejection barrel which looked pretty impressive!!<span style=""> </span>It was a long but fun day of talking to lots of people who seemed genuinely fascinated (even including the kids) with the work we are doing and all are looking forward to hearing of the success of the mission on BBC News next March!!!! We would just like to thank Debbie from the Science Festival for inviting us to show our work and also to everybody who came to see our display!!!Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08623481860080824492noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457111586290292246.post-50411379992170782142011-05-24T16:07:00.003+01:002011-05-24T16:27:34.013+01:00Fabrication,

days with all kinds of different things. The mechanical and electronic design is almost complete and manufacturing just began. In the picture to the left, the Central Hub and Daughter (CHAD) Section can be seen in the Magic Hat that got sent from ESRANGE a few weeks ago. The Magic Hat serves as a barrel from which the experimental module will get shot out after nosecone separation. The first verification tests have been undertaken at the University of Glasgow, a picture of the linear actuator test can be seen in the picture to the left. All the other necessary tests got scheduled for summer after a test team meeting yesterday in Glasgow. <p class="MsoNormal">Furthermore, the new SED (Student Experiment Documentation) version, SE<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0xP5TWD8EGc/TdvKB2IIE9I/AAAAAAAAB-A/IAZawae28t8/s1600/test.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0xP5TWD8EGc/TdvKB2IIE9I/AAAAAAAAB-A/IAZawae28t8/s200/test.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610299893878363090" border="0" /></a>D v2.0, is due to Thursday this week. The Suaineadh team is working hard to make it better then the Preliminary Design Review SED. We are on target to meet the deadline with time to spare.<br /><br />The Critical Design Review (CDR) is coming up too, it will be held at the DLR in Oberpfaffenhofen (close to Munich, Germany). Malcolm McRobb, Adam Wujek, Jerker Skogby and Thomas Sinn are heading to Munich from the 7th till 10th of June.</p>Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08623481860080824492noreply@blogger.com1
