SpaceDyS is very proud of this award and decided to use part of the prize to buy an all-sky camera for monitoring the meteors and fireball that pass over Navacchio. In fact, thanks to the collaboration of the Polo Tecnologico, the camera will be placed above one of the Polo’s buildings. This camera will be part of the PRISMA consortium and the Franch network of FRIPON.
