Want to participate in this National CanSat Competition?

We succesfully concluded the 3rd season in April and we are looking forward to the start of 4th competition in September with similar anticipation. Although the competition is becoming increasingly well-known in Hungary, there is always room for improvement and we are continuously strive to raise the standard. CanSat’s popularity is growing steadily: last year, 84 teams participated in our country and we expect even more this year. Each year more and more young people are interested in this unique satellite simulation challenge. This project not only develops technical skills and teamwork, but we also give young participants a glimpse into the world of STEM and the future that awaits them.
