Full Instructions at http://littlebits.cc/projects/satellite-dish Learn the science behind satellites and make your own parabolic reflector. Unique curved surfaces, such as parabolas, have a point called the FOCUS, where all of the energy entering the shape is 'reflected' from the parabolic curve and intersects at the focus. In your satellite dish model, the light sensor is your focus that receives energy from the bright LED and measures it in the number module. littleBits makes an open source library of electronic modules that snap together with magnets for prototyping, learning, and fun.
