DESCRIPTION:Build Your Own Satellite (BYOS-2026) is the 24-hour flagship te
 chnical competition organized by the IEEE AESS Student Chapter at BMS Inst
 itute of Technology and Management. This intensive\, three-round "build-a-
 thon" is designed to transition undergraduate students from theoretical ae
 rospace concepts to practical systems engineering.\n\nThe event challenges
  participants to design\, integrate\, and launch miniaturized satellite sy
 stems. Key highlights include:\n\n-\nPhase 1 (Knowledge): A rigorous onlin
 e qualification quiz covering satellite subsystems\, orbital mechanics\, a
 nd sensor physics.\n\n-\nPhase 2 (Development): A hardware-focused "Build 
 & Ground Qualification" phase where teams construct structural frames and 
 integrate electronics\, subjected to stress tests like vibration simulatio
 ns and drop trials.\n\n-\nPhase 3 (Mission): A high-stakes flight test whe
 re functional payloads are launched via drone to validate real-time data t
 ransmission and mission success.\n\nBy simulating the full lifecycle of a 
 space mission—from design and structural qualification to live telemetry
  via custom dashboards—BYOS-2026 fosters multidisciplinary innovation an
 d positions the IEEE AESS chapter as a premier hub for aerospace excellenc
 e within the academic community.\n\nBanglore\, Karnataka\, India\, Virtual
