Launching a satellite

A satellite program has hundreds of tests and a launch window that won’t wait. Basecamp tracks the test campaign on a Card Table and asks engineers what they shipped, so everyone knows how close you are to launch.

A satellite launch project in Basecamp with a Card Table, Docs & Files, a Message Board, a Schedule, and Automatic Check-ins

Orbitline moves Halo-3 tests from planned to passed on a Card Table and shares clean room and launch site photos in Docs & Files. The Message Board tracks results like thermal vacuum, the Schedule holds the pre-ship review, and Automatic Check-ins ask what each person shipped this week.
