Bay Area teens build satellite, headed to space via NASA
A group of engineering students at a Morgan Hill private school have achieved something remarkable. A small satellite built by students at Oakwood School has been selected by NASA to launch to the International Space Station. Oakwood was the only K-12 school chosen for the agency's Cube-Sat Launch Initiative, selected alongside other universities and a NASA flight center. The nanosatellite created by the team at Oakwood is called "Nyan Sat", a nod to the popular meme. KTVU's Alex Savidge is joined live in studio by two of the Oakwood students who helped build the satellite, junior Lauren Sorci and senior Ruchir Kavulli for more on the project.
