Detailed Project Description
Loader by using specialistic elements and materials, will meet goals of project. Built in generator produce electric energy required to work, that is stored in battery. Excess pressure from generator is moved to empty tank. That tank is alternatively abounded on planet or space. On-board computer and measuring apparatus is cooled with liquid Xenon which is collected as gas to another empty tank. Loader do measurements on Venus which is send to earth. After 60 days Loader start to space and come back to carrier rocket.

Hackathon Journey
In our opinion, the hackathon was a very interesting experience, we saw how many interesting projects are around us. We learned how to solve seemingly impossible problems in a simple way and how to use publicly available knowledge. We chose this challenge because looking at our skills and interests it seemed appropriate for us. When we had a problem regarding our challenge we went to rest and rethought the problem.
