“There is perhaps no better a demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world .”

Carl Sagan in Time magazine, 9 January 1995.

In 2015 Yellobric, in conjunction with Imagine Scholar (South Africa) and the East London Science School, are piloting the School SpaceRace. It does exactly what it says on the aluminium alloy shell; schools from across the globe compete to send their unmanned craft into space. Whichever team can get the furthest into space wins the technical challenge which will required applied knowledge across maths, physics and geography to name but a few subjects.

You can follow student progress on our video blog through each milestone as the teams compete to launch their spacecraft.
