About
The documentary “ESTCube-2.X: Ten Years to the Stars” tells the story of the trials and tribulations faced during the development of Estonia’s biggest and most scientifical satellite due date.Constant changes in plans, the surreal COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain issues for construction parts, endless launch delays, and countless minor setbacks turned years of work into a true test of patience. However, the determination of a team composed mostly of young students to take their project to the stars left no room for the satellite with its critical mission to remain incomplete. ESTCube-2 was finally completed, but as it departed from Earth, fate had yet another surprise in store for the cube satellite.
Challenges, however, make one stronger. Despite all the hardships and the unexpected ending, nothing can take away the invaluable experience these young geniuses gained, enabling them to push the boundaries of science even further in the future. These young visionaries proved that with unwavering dedication to a goal, world-class science can be achieved even in a small country like Estonia, inspiring generations to come.
