We also want to make tracking LightSail an inclusive activity that anyone, including folks without any prior radio experience, can enjoy. Our ultimate goal is building a software tool that will help LightSail trackers capture and submit data to our packet repository in real-time. Many of you sent us beacon packets, some of which were very helpful in telling us what our spacecraft was doing when it was out of range of our U.


During the LightSail test mission, dozens of radio trackers around the world tuned in to our spacecraft's signal.
