As IrishSat’s Chief Technology Officer, Isaac’s favorite memory stems from his freshman year during one of the club’s first high-altitude balloon launches. Packed into a small truck with fellow members Peter Harkins and Zach Zarzaur, they chased the payload across the countryside, only to find it had fallen into a lake. After borrowing kayaks and a paddle board from a friendly local, they spent the day searching for the hardware. Despite not retrieving it, the adventure and camaraderie fostered Isaac’s love for IrishSat.
