NASA Student research/engineering opportunity

Post by Ron Schmit »

NASA is launching a new student research/engineering opportunity at the Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL) and we need your help to get the word out. Micro-g NExT, or Micro-g Neutral Buoyancy Experiment Design Teams, challenges undergraduate students to design and build prototypes of spacewalk tools and then travel to Houston to test their prototypes in the simulated microgravity environment of NASA’s 6.2 million gallon indoor pool – the NBL. The NBL is the NASA training facility where astronauts train for spacewalks. Through this activity it is open to students for hands-on research. The deadline to apply for Micro-g NExT is January 28, 2015.

Information Sessions
Join the Micro-g NExT Coordinator for an online information session that include tips on how to submit a successful application.
Session 1: Wednesday Jan 14, 2015 at 6pm CT
