🎈 Η είσοδος είναι 5€, τα ποτά 5€ και οι μπύρες και το κρασί 4€.
‼️Παρακαλούμε πολύ για λόγους ευκολίας, ότι αφορά το χρηματικό ποσό των 5€ της εισόδου, να είναι όλα ακριβώς.‼️

☀️ This past Saturday we had the first onboarding meeting with new !

🧩 We got to know each other while playing games, we talked about SPIN's structure, our sub-teams, and responsibilities and we shared our new goals for this year.
🚀 We were happy to hear what all the new volunteers are interested in doing within our organization and we are ready to join forces to start working on exciting projects!
🙏 Thank you all for your interest and participation.

You still have a chance to join us!

🚀 H οργάνωση SPIN - Space Innovation είναι μη κερδοσκοπική, αστική οργάνωση που δημιουργήθηκε το 2017 ύστερα από πρωτοβουλία φοιτητών του Εθνικού Μετσόβιου Πολυτεχνείου. Σκοπός της είναι η έρευνα και ανάπτυξη νέων τεχνολογιών σχετικών με τη Διαστημική, την Πυραυλική και τη Ρομποτική. Ιδιαίτερα σημαντικό είναι ότι η οργάνωση δίνει τη δυνατότητα σε φοιτητές, αλλά και ερευνητές να συμμετέχουν σε όλες τις διαστημικές τεχνολογίες, με την άμεση εμπλοκή τους στον σχεδιασμό και την εφαρμογή καινοτόμων προγραμμάτων που θα οδηγήσουν στην ενίσχυση του ελληνικού διαστημικού οικοσυστήματος.

🚀Το Launch Event, η τελική εκδήλωση του CanSat in Greece 2023, θα πραγματοποιηθεί στην Αθήνα στις 20-23 Απριλίου 2023.

🎉Σε περιμένουμε!

⚙️ In the image above, you can observe the CAD assembly model of our 5th-generation high-power rocket (HPR). Four rockets of this generation were constructed, tested, successfully launched, recovered, and reused a total of 6 times back in April 2022.

An HPR goes under extreme loading conditions during its flight. The Structure & Aerodynamics team is responsible for ensuring that the Rocket will be structurally sound and stable during its flight. In addition, it is in charge of manufacturing all the rocket parts.

❕❕❕Also, don’t forget, we are recruiting❕❕❕

📡 Telemetry System - Avionics team

The telemetry system includes both the flight computer’s and the ground station’s LoRa transceiver. 🖥️ The ground station uses a directional Yagi-Uda antenna as it is ideal for short-range communications (~3 km) and has a higher gain.

🛰️ On the other hand, the flight computer uses an omnidirectional antenna for its small shape, and it also provides a better connection with the ground station while the rocket is spinning. The antennas broadcast on frequencies between 430MHz - 440MHz, which are license-free sub-gigahertz radio frequency bands in Greece.

❕❕❕Also, don’t forget, we are recruiting❕❕❕

⚠️ Deadline 31/12/2022 ⚠️

🚀 Static Test - Propulsion Team

The motor is the powerhouse of the rocket. In our team we produce the needed propellant from scratch, but first we study them theoretically and computationally👩‍🔬
Afterwards, we conduct various experiments to achieve the needs of our mission🥽 . We test our rocket’s motor via a static test which will provide us with useful feedback for our mission.

In the photo you can see our static test structure. The motor is inserted in the structure and fired up while a sensor is measuring the thrust provided. By doing these kinds of experiments we can verify the performance of our handmade propellant and make necessary adjustments👌

❕❕❕Also, don’t forget, we are recruiting❕❕❕

⚠️ Deadline 31/12/2022 ⚠️

🪂 Parachute Testing - Recovery System

In the picture above we see our first test on a parasheet chute back in 2017. The test was performed in a wind tunnel which blows air in a specific velocity💨 By attaching the chute on a sensor we can measure the drag force of the parachute with respect to many variables like the velocity of the wind blowing, the temperature of the room and many others📈 .

The members of the recovery system collected the data and evaluated the construction of the parachute. This type of experiment is very useful when it comes to decision-making for the geometry of a parachute✂️ .

We like to evaluate our job, learn from our mistakes and get better. After all, we are just curious about space✨ .

❕❕❕Also, don’t forget, we are recruiting❕❕❕

⚠️ Deadline 31/12/2022 ⚠️

💻 Avionics Team - Circuit Designing and Prototyping

The flight computer’s hardware monitors the rocket’s 🚀 status through a series of sensors. During the design phase, the team tested different modules, sensors, and board layouts.

📝 The design of the board layout settled on a thin and long form for various reasons: the electronics fit perfectly in the nose cone of the rocket, and they can also be fitted inside smaller-scale model rockets for flight tests ✅ The team is still working on refining the board design by testing different shapes and arrangements of the modules on the PCB.

❕❕❕Also, don’t forget, we are recruiting❕❕❕

👩‍🚀 SPIN’s Rocketry Team is recruiting!

🥇 The Rocketry Team is responsible for the design, manufacture, testing and operation of high-power rockets aimed to launch satellites (CanSats) to 1km apogee. The team was founded in 2017 and in 2018 SPIN became the first team in Greece to design, fully manufacture and launch a high power rocket.

🫂 The new volunteers of the team will work on interesting and innovative projects after a training period. In addition to the construction of the 5th generation of high-power rockets that will be used in CanSat in Greece 2023, the new volunteers will be involved in the design and construction of the new rocket that will compete in the EuRoC (European Rocketry Challenge) in Portugal in 2024 .

🚀 The Rocketry Team positions currently open are in the Propulsion Subsystem, Structure & Aerodynamics Subsystem, Recovery Subsystem and Avionics Subsystem.

🗓️ The duration of the program is expected to be at least one year from the assumption of duties. Due to the nature of the project, physical presence within Athens is required. Volunteer hours vary over time depending on the demands of projects, tests, etc. There will be mandatory weekly coordination meetings.

👩‍🔬 As a team member you will have the opportunity to:
✅ work on the design of a high power rocket.
✅ experience the project in its entirety.
✅ acquire new knowledge by getting hands-on experience.
✅ come into contact with modern technologies used in a variety of applications.
✅ achieve better results through cooperation and teamwork.
✅ practice your communication skills.
