Project EXCALIBUR
Project EXCALIBUR is a Queen Mary University of London student aerospace experiment developing and culturing L. aestuarii biofilm samples for a high-altitude balloon flight. ESA documents onboard UV, atmospheric-pressure, and temperature sensing through biofilm-coated and uncoated surfaces, followed by laboratory analysis after recovery; the team was selected for the 2026 Fly Your Satellite! test-opportunity window.
