Constellation is a platform for research projects that use Internet-connected
computers to do research in various aerospace related sciences and engineering.
You can participate by downloading and running a free program
on your computer.

How to be involved? Overwhelming 28c3 response Hi everyone,
we received some emails after the 28c3, where you asked us how to be involved.
There are quite some ways.
A:
You can participate in the distributed ground station network and help building it. There is a special email list constellation@lists.shackspace.de
B:
You can propose your own project and we would love to let it run on Constellation. So when you need massive computing power for your aerospace simulation or want to build your own sensor grid, just ask us via email (constellation@aerospaceresearch.net) or in our forums.
C:
Or you can just be generous and passivley donate your idle PC time to our project by joining it. This project uses BOINC. If you're already running BOINC, select "Attach to Project". If not, download BOINC.
When prompted, enter http://aerospaceresearch.net/constellation/ .
So there are some ways to do some good for the (science) community, you just have to pick one.
We're really eager to receive more comments.
What an overwheling response to our project presentation on 28c3. THANK you, but you have to thank yourself, because it's the community that makes this platform run!
here are our FAQs http://shackspace.de/wiki/doku.php?id=project:hgg:faq
These FAQs are very helpful to realize, which press exaggerates a LITTLE bit and which didn't.
There are some false parts, that's aren't facts.
For example, we don't build satellites. That's not part of our paper and video.
And we're not doing internet, also I can't exclude that for future steps. But we're not there yet.
When you have additional questions, just ask. So far only 4 journalists asked directly and 2 wrote an article. ;)
Meet & crunch on 28c3 or RKN beer table Hi everyone,
I will head to 28th chaos communication congress in Berlin in some hours and I heartly invite you to grab me there when you see me and ask me anything you'll like. I hope to get in contact with a lot of interesting people there.
And of course I would like to have a hugh audiance present there on 28.12.11 and via video streaming. https://bitly.com/28c3hgg

next to the congress centre at 29.12.11-19:45hrs
You will find us starting at the Sudhaus and then Yoyo will lay out some Rechnekraft.net flyers on our final table.
