Hey guys, I helped build the Cubesat, any questions - Fire away!


What was the atmospheric pressure during the tests? Martian like?


It is about 40% of Earth's pressure. So low, but not as low as the actual pressure on Mars, which is too low to even consider. This assumes a greenhouse environment but without the necessity to create exact earth pressure, making it easier to maintain, using less energy.
