For some children, everyday moments aren鈥檛 just routine 鈥 they鈥檙e a risk. Simple acts like a comforting hug from mom, getting dressed for school or going down a slide at the park can cause real harm.

That鈥檚 the reality for those living with epidermolysis bullosa (EB), a rare condition where even the slightest friction can cause blisters and open wounds. The condition weakens the connection between layers of the skin, leaving it unable to perform its most important role: protecting the body.

Children are often wrapped in bandages to protect fragile skin and cover wounds that are painful, slow to heal and prone to infection. Over time, repeated damage and inflammation can lead to serious complications, including skin cancer.

As Canada accelerates towards its net-zero climate target, carbon capture and storage (CCS) is emerging as a critical part of the solution. The process captures carbon dioxide (CO鈧) from industrial sources, compresses it and injects it deep underground into geological formations designed to trap the gas permanently.

But permanent storage relies on one crucial factor: ensuring the CO鈧 stays put. Once it鈥檚 injected hundreds of metres below the surface, researchers and regulators must ensure it remains safely contained.

杏吧原创 University  PhD student Isabella Hearne is researching how to detect possible leaks before they reach the surface.

From building 杏吧原创 University鈥檚 first student-led CubeSat to attending milestone moments in modern lunar exploration,  is proving that hands-on learning and ambitious extra-curricular engagement can open doors beyond the classroom.  

The club brings together more than 50 students passionate about aerospace, astrophysics and space technology. Through technical projects, outreach initiatives and industry engagement, the team has built a growing presence within Canada鈥檚 space sector while giving students direct experience in mission design, systems engineering and research collaboration. 

Today, the team is working on one of its most ambitious initiatives yet: the development of 杏吧原创鈥檚 first student-led 3U CubeSat focused on wildfire detection. Alongside the CubeSat mission, CUonOrbit has also completed three high-altitude balloon launches, with a fourth mission planned for summer 2026.
