Back in October last year, we launched our Awesome Orbit Competition with astronaut Tim Peak. We asked you to design an emblem showing how you think satellites could be used in the future.
We are over the moon to announce that the winner of Blue Peter's Awesome Orbit Competition is Bethany with her amazing 'Earth Sitter' design π°οΈ
Bethany's winning design will be engraved onto an ACTUAL satellite and launched, via an ACTUAL rocket, into ACTUAL space!!
Bethany will also take a trip in a driverless car powered by a satellite, she will see behind the scenes at satellite testing facilities AND get the chance to control a Mars Rover here on Planet Earth.
β¨ Congratulation to everyone who entered, you had so many wonderful ideas! From satellites that clean up the ocean to satellites that fight fires, your designs were so colourful, clever and creative, you deserve a big pat on the back - well done! β¨
Bethany's amazing space message
Take a look at Bethany's out of this world congratulation message from ESA astronaut Matthias Maurer, who has sent her an Orange competition winner badge FROM SPACE!
Mattias tells us about his mission as well as showing off his own Mission Patch design, which is called 'Cosmic Kiss'.
Check out Bethany's entry and our top two runner-ups
Did you know that the top 30 entries will be engraved onto the satellite which will be sent up into space and will orbit the Earth 15 times a day? How cool is that!? Even cooler... this will be the first-ever launch of a satellite here in the UK, so the top 30 entries are becoming part of history.
