 We would love to have more people on board bringing in knowledge covering space, satellites, radio communications, antenna design, electronic design, ground station design.  Pretty much everything.

 ==== Do you want to replace the old short-wave communication established by radio amateurs? ====
-In no way! We would like to add another way to communicate in case disaster strikes, but would never even think about replacing anything. If radio amateurs use our communications systems, we'd be glad if it helps them enlarging their communication inferastructure.

 ==== What are your secondary goals? (SCIENCE) ====
-To provide a basis for science. We all want to learn and to know new things. Tracking satellites and providing the data is one aspect, but also indirect aspects like atmospheric research is possible. Because during the propagation of electromagnietic waves through the atmosphere, it can have an influence on the propagation and this can be measured and detected locally for each ground station reception point.

 We're not yet at a stage where sending is on the road map.  We're working on receiving data for now.
 Once that works we do have HAM radio operators on board who have the required knowledge and education to know what is allowed.

 ==== You want uncensorable internet? ====
 Nope, we're working on a distributed ground station network, no alternative internet infrastructure on the horizon at this point.
-==== What if someone jams your satellite or shoots it from the sky? ====
-It probably will not work and once it's shot down it's... well.. shot down I guess.
-Since we don't have actual satellites yet, this falls in the category of problems we're going to solve once they occur.
-We're doing this because we want to and because it's fun.  We're trying to concentrate on reasons why this will work, not why it won't.
-==== Internet connection or no Internet connection for the groundstation? ====
-It's both, because we intent to have the groundstations to be modular systems. For using it with Constellation, and that's a BOINC project, it has to be connected to the internet to send received data to the Constellation server for further processing.
-But the ground station system can be used without internet, when you want to use it in "fast deployable mode" for your own projects beside Constellation. Then you will have to deploy 4 receiver stations and connect them to your laptop(s) or collect all storage media added to them, where all received data is stored on. Then you have to manage the data handling and processing by your own.
-There are also ideas of building upon already existing HAM radio packet data networks for this task.
-==== What about bandwidth? ====
-If you're in desperate need to communicate you do not care about watching videos on YouTube nor do you want to download the latest album of your favorite band to have the perfect soundtrack for whatever the hell you're doing.
-You want to get a message out and receive updates.  You want to inform and stay informed yourself.
-A first step will be providing bare-minimum communication infrastructure for that moment of feaco-rotary intersection that will hopefully never happen.  But it did happen, several times during 2011 alone in several places.  It will happen again.
-Think twitter updates, not video streaming.
-This does not rule out high-bandwidth links and geo-stationary community controlled satellites somewhere down the road.  It's merely a reality re-adjustment to the possibly most important thing: staying connected.
