The Orbiteers put finishing touches on the Preliminary Design Report (PDR) and its accompanying presentation. Ryan and Trevor picked up the rental car on Wednesday night so that the Orbiteers could travel together in style to MRSL headquarters in Sarasota on Thursday!
We successfully presented our PDR and the engineers at MRSL had insightful questions that we plan to incorporate into our project and some of our project management tools (like an updated weekly Project Risk spreadsheet assessing if a risk in eminent or not). After our PDR presentation, the Orbiteers and MRSL got to have an extended planning session where we planned some of the structure of certain Pydantic models and how we want to organize the rest of the project to make the whole thing as modular as possible.
Below is a picture of the Orbiteers at MRSL!
