New Sponsor: Hexcel


Team Phoenicia has been working on composites for over a year now. We have already produced one very strong, new composite, Cryocarb(tm) that is both cryogenic and corrosive compatible. We are now working on other composites as well for other aspects than tanks that we could use for our GLXP mission and spinout in turn.

Hexcel has stepped up to help us by becoming a sponsor of Team Phoenicia's GLXP efforts. We will be using their new and extremely strong fiber for working on greatly improving our strength of both Cryocarb(tm) and our new structural and other composites.

We are extremely excited to have Hexcel join our backers in our quest to land at the lunar south pole and capture the GLXP first place. We look forward to working with them throughout the challenge.

Nanosat Launcher Challenge Seminar Raw Video [1]

Nanosat Launcher Challenge Raw Video Preface

We have had some challenges with prepping the video from the Nanosat Launcher Challenge Seminar. Since we are so far behind in our promised posting of the NLC Seminar videos, we thought we would try uploading the raw footage and then put the polished product as we are finally able.
