This meetup, Embedded Ninja Shaun Meehan from Planet Labs presents "9 Days to Space" discussing the challenges of quick turn hardware and getting your design out the door in time to catch the next rocket into orbit!

Also, Eric Kolker from Technical Machine (makers of the Tessel) presents "From APIs to Electrons" and traces the path from the web to the physical world as they experienced in creating theTessel hardware.
