CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Students from Merritt Island High School in Florida perform integration tests a cubesat called StangSat they will fly on a suborbital mission in the summer. The satellite will work inside a small rocket to measure vibration and other data during launch. NASA engineers are acting as mentors for the project and some of the space agency's labs at Kennedy Space Center, including this one inside the Operations and Checkout Building, are being used by the teams.
