Do you remember that childhood fascination with space? Do you want to fly your work in space? Do you have a general interest in how things work? Do you want to get internship like experience while still taking classes? If you can answer yes to any of these questions, then come join the Student Space Programs Laboratory at the kickoff meeting January 19 at 7pm in 160 Willard, where you can get your hands on real flight hardware and software while building a CubeSat mission, High Altitude Balloon Payloads, Rockets and Satellite Communications Systems. This semester will see the flight of one Balloon Payload and the building and testing of another to fly in September. All engineering, science. education and other majors are invited to join to work on projects funded by NASA, NSF, Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Aeorspace Corporation. While working, you can add the extra impact to your diploma of a special Certificate in Space Systems Engineering ( http://www.engr.psu.edu/Departments/spacesys.aspx). Independent study, honors option/thesis topics are available. We have many projects and positions available. For more information, please attend the information session or contact Lab Director Professor Bilén ( sbilen@psu.edu) or Programs Manager Allen Kummer ( atk5025@psu.edu). http://sspl.psu.edu
