Issue #137 - Moving
Hi everyone
The Foundation bid a fond farewell home of four years at Mount Pleasant House as they move in to new bigger offices by Cambridge Station.
In other news, the latest issue of The MagPi is out now, and you can even download a special edition made for the Bett Show – the educator’s edition.
Be sure to check out Linux Voice’s new project on Kickstarter – a coding adventure book for kids: Beep Beep Yarr!
The Astro Pi units have been unboxed by Tim Peake and are due to be powered up soon. Watch out for more news from the space station!
Until next week…
