Operation Snowflake progress report

My Garden Space Program engineering mission "Operation Snowflake" is progressing nicely through design and build stages.

Most of the housing parts are printed and painted and most of the electronics are build and tested, but i'm still missing some sensor and a lot of software.

I have also been invited to have an exhibit of the Garden Space Program at Grazer Linuxtage (Linux days) at the end of April. Instead of "launching" Snowflake as soon as possible, it will be shown at the Linuxtage first and then launch during spring. Since Snowflake is planned for operations lasting at least a year, we will still get all the required science and engineering data, but i have much more time to really work out the remaining bugs in the hardware and software.
