About the competition:
The Cansat Competition is organized by American Astronautical Society (AAS) and American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). . Teams must be able to design and build a space-type system, following the approved competition guide, and then compete against each at the end of two semesters to determine the winners.
