Engineering Excellence
"Six students from Luxembourg designing, building, and launching a CanSat — from 3D-printed chassis to live telemetry and atmospheric CO₂ sensing.
Education and Outreach
By building a real satellite as students, we're proving that meaningful aerospace engineering doesn't require a lab — just curiosity, dedication, and the right team.
Sustainable Space Exploration
We're building something that works, transmits real data, and contributes to atmospheric research — all while learning what it takes to engineer a mission from the ground up.
Community Engagement
We document and share every step of our journey — through social media, school publications, and our website — to inspire others to take on projects like this.
Elevating Atmospheric Research with Innovation
he Ikarus 6 CanSat is a student-built, 3D-printed satellite designed to measure CO₂ levels during atmospheric descent. Combining hands-on engineering with real mission objectives, our project bridges space technology and environmental science.
