Nobody told us we couldn't do it. That, or we didn't listen.
 

10/16 Meeting

The strandbeest team continued to work on the prototype, completing one leg system and almost completing a second. Once both leg systems are assembled, we will construct the structure that will bring them together and hopefully have a walking structure by the end of the next meeting

The satellite team discussed the structure and mechanism for stage 1, the balloon stage, and began discussing ideas for stage 2 propulsion. We reached a point where we needed to conduct some research before making any more decisions, and will continue the discussion on stage 2 propulsion at the next meeting. Once we make some fundamental decisions regarding stage 2 propulsion, we will start performing calculations to test the viability of our ideas.
