Engineering Students Present at HUNCH
Students from the Engineering 2 class presented their HUNCH Projects this week to industry engineers and NASA employees. HUNCH (High Schoolers United with NASA Creating Hardware) participated in the first review event sharing their designs and receiving feedback on their projects. The students had a variety of projects to design from Lunar Campers for two astronauts, to Tiny Robots that take photographs of the lunar surfaces to 3D printed Lunar Stakes for tarps on the Moon. The students will take their judge feedback and continue to iterate their designs and prepare for a Final Design Review in February. Congratulations to all these students for their professionalism and hard work! Please view the students' work in this Google Photo Album.
