Thomas Oscar and Leo send python code to the International Space Station













Thomas, Oscar and Leo wrote a small python script to interact with the sense hat built into the astro-pi on the space station.
Their code was approved and ready for flight, It will run for 30 seconds before 1st February 2018.

You can see the code in action at the trinket test pages:

If you have pixel installed on your raspberry pi you can use the sense hat emulator and copy the code and adapt it to your own needs. Picture above shows just that.
