Pi in spaaaaace... for a bit longer than planned
Briefly

YPSat, designed to record Ariane 6's flight phases, remained in orbit due to a failure, featuring a Raspberry Pi camera for imaging tasks until reentry.
The quick development of YPSat in 2022 included a Raspberry Pi camera aimed at capturing separation moments, Earth images, transmitting data before re-entry.
Raspberry Pi's affordability and adaptability are showcased in YPSat and ESA's AstroPi project, demonstrating its widespread application in space technology.
