Early last month, NASA launched a research satellite designed by UGA students and faculty from the Small Satellite Research Lab. As of Thursday, that satellite, named SPOC (Spectral Ocean Color), has reached the Earth’s orbit. Chris Shupe gives an update on UGA's first research satellite and what’s next in store.
Chris Shupe was the Program Director of WUGA from 2014-2022. Shupe may be best known as The Athens King, a tribute to Elvis Presley, which often included an 8 piece show band! After two years as a part-time announcer, Chris Shupe joined WUGA full time as the station’s Morning Edition Host and Assistant Operations Director. He was later promoted to PD in 2014.
