The annual ANSAT workshop was held at the Andoya Rocket Range (ARR) from 19-20. june.
The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) held a cubesat seminar to introduce the work being performed on their student satellite project NUTS. Three CubeSTAR students attended the seminar to learn about the NUTS and exchange information and experience with the other students.
In late January, five students from the University of Oslo attended the 1st IAA Conference on University Satellite Missions and Cubesat Workshop held in Rome.
