Team 842 Competing in the Pete Conrad Spirit of Innovation Awards

[kE7JLM]

Team 842 is competing in the Pete Conrad Spirit of Innovation Awards (http://www.conradawards.org/). We will be traveling to the Ames Research center in three weeks to compete against other high school teams. We will have to present our idea of an EVROV (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sz1Lp7PFvgE) to a panel of judges. Though the judges are not the only ones that have an opinion on who should win, you can vote for us. Online public voting starts March 29 – April 9th. Please support your fellow FIRST team.

Getting set for the Houston aquatic training pool? Not that there is any apparent shortage of ideas in your group, but an autonomous space/orbital garbage collector has been necessary ever since homo sapiens has extended our littering tendencies to the tropopause and beyond.

Best of luck in your pursuits. I've bookmarked the page. How many times can we vote? ;)
