What might be the reason(s) for the intermittent tracking? Out of reception 
range because it was too low? Out of reception range because it was too high? 
Power problems? Batteries? Solar panels? Maybe it wasn't working at night? 

I didn't see the Queens students talk. What was the configuration of the 
payload? Batteries and solar panels? What sensors did they have on board? Were 
they recording data? Is there going be a post-flight wrap-up?

Thanks.
