Astro Pi 2023

Astro Pi 2023 Challenge coming soon.

What is Astro Pi?

The European Astro Pi Challenge offers young people the amazing opportunity to conduct scientific investigations in space by writing computer programs that run on Raspberry Pi computers aboard the International Space Station (ISS).

2023 challenge opens mid September.

Please see website for details.

Note: As I run the STEM group, and we are a bring you own projects event, then I am happy for this to be a safe place to meet up and work on projects. However:-

  • If you are working on Mission Zero you will need a PARENT / GUARDIAN to help you.
  • If you are undertaking Mission Space Lab you will need a MENTOR to help you.
