The functional testing of MIST is now concentrating on creating a simulation environment for future full flight simulations. It consists of solar panel simulators developed by a student (Gustav) earlier and simulators of the power drain of experiments as a function of time developed by yet another student (Malte). The solar panel simulators and the experiment simulators work in simulated real time. Designing the whole set-up in the picture is the subject of Stefano’s M.Sc. thesis.
