Space debris has hit and knocked out the satellite communication system that is used to communicate with the International Space Station. It may be a few months before communication can be restored, so the international partners have decided to launch a mini rocket to the Space Station with a message inside that lets the Station astronauts know what has happened and to assure them that ISS agencies are working with all possible speed to restore communication. Your job is to work together within your own agency team and with the other three agencies to build a rocket to send a joint message to the astronauts aboard the Space Station.
