About 3 days ago I got an assignment for a show and tell. The idea is to find or make an item that you will be taking to mars (only one item ) so decided to make a backpack with everything I want in it. The backpack will be containing the following:

Take the 10x5x5 box and cut a square into the lid
cut small squares into the sides for the 2 small solar panels glue them in place
close lid and place a metal square on the bottom and gloe the antenna to it
Step 2: Coms and Antennas
you'll need:
tedelex transceiver
Tape measure strips 30 & 40 cm long
wood strip 67cm long
screws
12 volt battery
skrew the tape measure strips to the wood strip it should look like a T with two horizontal lines

Step 4: Power System
you'll need
12 volt battery

Step 5: Mini Laptop/ Controll Systems
note* I did not have cash to buy a raspberry for my control system so used a broken tablet and a working controller
you'll need
tablet or raspberry screen
keyboard
controller
Step 6: Attach Everything
This is the best part according to me LOL!!!
Now you just have to attach the antenna, socket, transceiver, and BT-speaker oh and the tablet
I used zip ties to ties to attach the antenna, speaker and the socket to the backpack
the toolkit, cubesat, gun, battery, controller and box are just placed inside the backpack.
