A 10 line test image was taken with the Sunsat imager to verify its operation. As the tracking dish antenna at the ground station is unserviceable the image was downloaded at 9600 baud. This download method is too slow for realistic size images, but the team is confident that the dish will be repaired within a week. The false colour test image is displayed below.
