HYPER-MEGA-ULTRA-WOOT: We've submitted our proposal! 🎉 🙌 🙌🏻 🙌🏼 ✋🏽 🙌🏾 🙌🏿

Submitted proposal.

Ahem.

Original text follows:

ESA is having a competition to have code run on OPS-SAT. I think Polaris should submit a proposal. Proposals are due by May 23, 2021. I'm happy to help organize this.

Originally proposed in #165 (closed); converting to a milestone to collect issues attached to it.

Where can I read more?

• https://nanosat-mo-framework.github.io/, which is installed on OPS SAT. Description of NanoSat MO Framework: "This is a set of Java libraries which effectively hide the low level complication of operating the different units to allow the experimenters to concentrate on their applications – it is just like developing a smartphone app, except your app runs onboard a flying satellite. Another advantage of using the NMF is that the users can easily control these apps via a browser application over the internet."
• OPS-SAT Smartcam, an application already running on OPS-SAT which classifies images taken by onboard cameras; this is used to prioritize pictures for download.
