Congrats to soon-to-be-Dr Rachel McAmis on passing the UW @uwcse.bsky.social General Exam and advancing to candidacy. Her research, with the UW Security & Privacy Research Lab and the @techpolicylab.bsky.social, is focused on satellites and computer security

Rachel presenting a slide titled "High-level Architecture" in which a ground operator communicates with a ground station, which then communicates with a comms component on a satellite; the comms component is connected to a flight computer, as is the ADCS, power, and payload.
