## Intro

RSX is the University of Toronto's Robotics for Space Exploration design team, affiliated with the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering. Composed of two competition teams, Rover and Aerial, we build a mars rover from the ground-up and compete in the University Rover Challenge, and build a small rocket payload that competes in the AAS CanSat Competition.

### Mission

We aim to inspire students to pursue their passions in robotics and space, providing a hands-on environment that arms them with the tools they'll need to succeed in the industry.

## How we plan to use HackMD

We plan to use HackMD throughout our project planning and research stages. We needed a tool that is versatile, quick, enables collaboration, and allows for easy information-sharing. Our current system of Google Docs was not meeting that standard.
