This aerial carousel lets you soar above the entrance to Tomorrowland. The ten winning teams come from from Italy, Romania, Czech Republic, Canada, United Kingdom, Portugal, Ireland, and Denmark, and will each receive a goody bag to recognise their achievement.Īlong with the winning teams, we would like to commend the following teams for their experiments. The judges from ESA and the Raspberry Pi Foundation have been busy reviewing all of the reports to assess the scientific merit, process, experiment design and analysis and use of the Astro Pi hardware. This allowed teams to capture high-quality images with a much wider field of view to use in their analysis. We were especially excited to see the results from the experiments this year, particularly with the upgraded Astro Pi units and being positioned in a new observation window (WORF) on the ISS. Many teams chose to compare their data with other sources, including images captured from previous years, to identify patterns and phenomena. Then the teams were sent their data and started working on their analysis and writing their Phase 4 reports. The programs that teams submitted were deployed on the ISS and ran for up to 3 hours, collecting data for their experiments during May 2023.
In February this year, 294 teams submitted programs that passed the rigorous testing at Astro Pi Mission Control to achieve ‘flight status’ and progress to Phase 3. In Phase 2, 498 teams were invited to create programs in Python to conduct their experiments and were sent Astro Pi kits to help test their programs. Their ideas were reviewed and those that would work on the Astro Pis go through to the next phase. In Phase 1, 771 teams of young people sent us ideas for experiments that could run on the Astro pi computers, using the different sensors and camera modules (Visible light or Near Infrared).

This year, Mission Lab had four phases, starting in September and finishing in June each year. Their mission is to design and create a computer program to run on the two Astro Pi computers - space-adapted Raspberry Pis with cameras and a range of sensors. In Mission Space Lab, teams of young people aged up to 19 work together to create scientific experiments to be carried out on the International Space Station.
