On Sunday September 4th from 12 AM to 3 PM, a public debriefing will be held for all interested rocket enthusiasts.
The debriefing will cover all results and experiences learned from the Nexø I launch in July.
What went well, what went not so well?
At the event a number of talks will be presented by the personnel responsible for design, production and launch of Nexø I.
After the talks are concluded, you are invited to see and touch Nexø I (what’s left of it), meet the CS team, and ask questions. All the tall tales about the mission will undoubtedly be aired too.
