Throughout the day, students learned about engineering, fabrication, tooling, automation, assembly and more — straight from the experts who design and build space flight hardware and tooling every day. Students were given a tour of the Futuramic facilities helping to build the Space Launch System (SLS), NASA’s most powerful rocket for their missions to the moon and mars, while also viewing interactive presentations on turnkey electrical control integrations by Intec. Many students who participated in the event attend a local high school with a manufacturing pathway, which offers students the chance to take engineering and manufacturing classes during the school day to set them up for a successful career after graduation.
