Educational design taking lessons from tech firms
Much like tech firms in Silicon Valley, educators are also understanding the value of having the ability to rest and recharge.

A growing body of evidence shows that access to quality outdoor environments helps students to deal with stress and think clearly. At CSUN, through a variety of flexible indoor and outdoor spaces, the students now have a space that promotes mindfulness and a healthy, stress-free lifestyle. -- Building Design + Construction

CubeSats Deployed From ISS
CSUNSat1 – California State University Northridge, NASA JPL
The primary mission of CSUNSat1 is to space test an innovative low temperature-capable energy storage system, developed by JPL, raising its TRL level to 7 from 4 to 5. The success of this energy storage system will enable future missions, especially those in deep space to do more science while requiring less energy, mass and volume. This CubeSat was designed, built, programmed, and tested by a team of over 70 engineering and computer science students at California State University (CSUN). The primary source of funding for CSUNSat1 is NASA’s Small Spacecraft Technology Partnership program. For more information see http://www.csun.edu/cubesat. -- Parabolic Arc
