Blue Sat for Third World Information Distribution
September 11, 2007 @ 02:12 AM

University of New South Wales students are creating a satellite.

It would be fantastic if this project or similar projects could be used for telecommunications in third world nations.

That's great!

It would be wonderful if schools invest time and energy into building satellite that could be used to hop internet signals off of.

I wonder how hard that would be....nerdy
