Re: NASA Robotic Mining Competiton

Yes, ISU still has a team for the competition. I was heavily involved with the team from 2012-2014 and found it to be a great competition. The things I learned and the people I met ended up getting me a job in the mechanical engineering machine shop on campus. I would say the best part of the competition is getting to meet all the volunteers for the competition. They have people from all over the US fly in and help out, people who are experts in the field of resource utilization and space in general. Getting to talk first hand with the people who are working on such awesome technology is really rewarding in and of itself.
