| Event Description: | 3 online sessions for school pupils from Thursday 5th October 10:45 SaxaVord Spaceport is developing a vertical launch site for rockets up in Unst, Shetland. These rockets will be used to deliver satellites into orbit around the Earth. Bryden will talk about how the company began, what SaxaVord do and why this is happening in Shetland of all places! Thursday 5th October 14:00 Join Derek from Skyrora to learn about Space & Entrepreneurship. Derek will be covering why their CEO founded Skyrora, why they chose Scotland for their headquarters, why there is a market gap in micro launch for small satellites (and what that is!) and finally for an overview of their most important milestones. Friday 6th October 09:30 Delivered in partnership with DYW Live, Tech We Can and Ada.Scot, Becky will highlight the role technology plays in helping us to explore space – and also show some of the careers within the space industry that students could pursue in the future. Becky will also set the children an optional follow up creative challenge. |
