Current Projects
In 2006, AMSAT is currently building the P3-E and Eagle satellites (Both Phase 3, see above), and has cooperated in developing the AMSAT Widget, a system used to communicate from one device to another using as few wires as possible. It works over the CAN interface, using an AMSAT-developed protocol called CAN-DO. AMSAT-DL is planning the GO-Mars/P5A spacecraft (Phase 5), to be launched to Mars.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or projects:
“The current of our thoughts made as sudden bends as the river, which was continually opening new prospects to the east or south, but we are aware that rivers flow most rapidly and shallowest at these points.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“One of the things that is most striking about the young generation is that they never talk about their own futures, there are no futures for this generation, not any of them and so naturally they never think of them. It is very striking, they do not live in the present they just live, as well as they can, and they do not plan. It is extraordinary that whole populations have no projects for a future, none at all.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
