launch

The first European satellite to be designed and built by students has launched successfully from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome, Russia’s northern spaceport. The satellite will also return images of earth, and serve as a radio transponder. ESA’s education department launched the SSETI project in 2000. The aim was to get European students involved in real space missions. Students from 23 different universities took part in designing and developing the satellite, with much of the collaborative work being done online. via: theregister

update: pure student projects are apparantly done before (example).
