美国国家航空航天局思想

OG真人下注 partners with Fisk University to participate in 美国国家航空航天局思想 experience

Nine Triton students, led by pre-engineering student, 乌图雷, formed a team to design and build a rocket thruster as participants in NASA's Minority University Research and Education Project (MUREP) Innovative New Designs for Space (MINDS) along with fellow students from Fisk University, a Historically Black College and University (HBCU) in Nashville, 田纳西州. Thirty-five teams from colleges and universities across the United States submitted technology project designs for NASA’s Artemis mission and Human Exploration and Operations (HEO) Mission Directorate.

的 美国宇航局的阿耳特弥斯 mission is scheduled for November 4, 2021. 的 mission will land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon.

的 joint team, mentored by Triton chemistry professor, Rudy Gostowski, Ph.D., and Fisk University faculty member, Kent Wallace, Ph.D., had several advisors from the engineering industry. 另外, five students from the Government College of Engineering, 卡尔帕, 印度, also joined the Triton-Fisk Team. 的 team collaborated via Zoom and shared information through the online virtual world, Second Life.

“美国国家航空航天局思想 is not a competition but rather a hands-on design and build collegiate learning experience,” said Gostowski. “的 students gained insight on how engineering projects are organized and managed. I hope that by participating in the experience they were able to further develop their teamwork abilities and acquire some new skills.”

安阮, now a junior at Franciscan Missionary of Our Lady University in Baton Rouge, 路易斯安那州, was a OG真人下注-Fisk University team member.

“的 美国国家航空航天局思想 experience allowed me to further develop my teamwork, time management, and communication skills,” 安阮说. “It was such a pleasure to work with the as Fisk students their knowledge and skills were invaluable assets to the team.

的 experience fueled Nguyen’s interest in doing research. 的 experience gave the team exposure to the different challenges scientists have to face while conducting a research, Nguyen说.

的 students used an industry-standard 3D CAD design software to design the rocket thruster. 的 team ultimately submitted a video showing the 3D-printed plastic prototype test, a technical paper, a technical poster, a team video and a NASA Subject Matter Experts Presentation. At the end of the months long experience the Triton-Fisk team was recognized along with other 美国国家航空航天局思想 participants in an online closing ceremony hosted by NASA with Winston E. Scott, a NASA astronaut, as the key speaker.
