»  Comments | Post a Comment

PETAL, Miss. (AP) - Petal High School has been selected by NASA
to participate in a project to design and build products for use in
an Ares mock-up - part of the future space exploration.
About a dozen students will participate.
Bob Zeek, a simulation engineer at Stennis Space Center, tells
the Hattiesburg American that the students will be working to
produce two- and three-dimensional mock-ups of a turbine pump.
The students will be in touch over the next six months with NASA
engineers.
Zeek says the Ares space vehicle will succeed current space
shuttles. He says shuttles are set to be phased out starting in
2011.
