Over the past couple of weeks, we have finalized our designs and are currently putting everything together. We are finishing up the soldering for the primary and secondary NESI boards. Also, we are assembling the final bioreactors. Now, only small adjustments need to be made such as focusing the camera and loading up the bioreactors with algae.
These upcoming days are going to be intense. We are scheduled to ship the bioreactor Tuesday, April 21. By tomorrow, we are planning to have the entire bioreactor assembled, loaded up with algae, and placed in the space box. We will conduct a full test of this weekend; this will include the code, algea, lights, and everything else in the experiment. This weekend-long test will help us identify any last-minute problems and allow us to come up with swift solutions.
