Firstly, thank you again to Chris and the team here for providing our school with rolling complementary L2 allowance over the years, it's been such a help and inspiration to be able to show our students far more than the less-than-great NASA.gov outreach and overbearing educational materials.I would now like to call on NSF members on a project idea I have for my 8th graders where they envision their own satellite. We'll be looking to help them use Rocket Builder or some other route to then launch their satellite, but that may require more hands on help. For now, I want them to create their own satellite.We'll start with naming their spacecraft and then drawing it via a design process using current designs. We won't be getting too deep, so no KU-band overviews, I just want them to feel it's their satellite and that will be the starting point.I noticed some great names for satellites, like Superbird, so if anyone has a good idea per how to providing a naming process, that would be greatly appreciated.
Naming convention was for small kids, but it worked.Favorite Color.Favorite Animal.Favorite Number.
