Liam Kennedy
Founder / Inventor
ISS-Above
I'm the inventor of the ISS-Above, a tiny little computer gadget that presents a whole set of live information about the International Space Station including video showing live views of the earth. What started as a weekend project in 2013 to build a cool gizmo to inspire my grandchildren has now been shipped to more than 3,500 locations around the world including private homes, more than 500 schools, and dozens of science centers across the USA.
I will so miss chatting with many of you in-person at SEEC this year - however - if you want to chat - book a meeting with me any time I am available:
