Wow, here's another piece of tech news from a place in which I have some experience. Yesterday I posted about the Telekino developed and tested in Bilbao early in the 20th century -- today's post is about a much more recent effort in Guatemala: this one to launch a small satellite, a CubeSat.
Details here: https://www.uvg.edu.gt/cubesat-en/
Hack-A-Day reports that the Guatemalan University recently open-sourced all their data on the satellite: https://hackaday.com/2023/07/04/quetzal-1-satellite-goes-open-source/ The Hack-A-Day comments are, as usual, harsh and critical, filled with the assumption that the commenters could have done better.
But hey, three cheers for Quetzal 1 and the Guatemalan satellite builders!
