This course runs for six consecutive Saturdays, January 20 – February 24, 2024.
What major engineering and design principles make flight possible? From hot air balloons to space launching systems, how do we create structures that are light, durable, and safe? This course introduces aerospace engineering concepts as students investigate tools, terminology and design principles of flying machines. Design, build, test, and analyze results in hands-on physics and engineering experiments related to airplanes and spacecrafts. Explore how engineering influences the development of new materials and designs for flight.
