This evening after a full day of classes and experiment preparation, we had the opportunity to go with our mentor, Jeremy Hart, to see the project he is currently working with other NASA engineers to complete. His project, Morpheus, is a prototype vehicle which will one day collect samples of the soil on other planets. Morpheus will allow small rover vehicles to be placed on other planets for investigation. Tomorrow Jeremy and his team will be completing another field test with Morpheus. It was exciting for our team to have this "behind-the-scenes" tour of NASA engineering.
