Rhode Island School of Design space club projects get NASA backing
NASA has selected three projects from the Rhode Island School of Design s Space Design club for its development programmes, meaning the work could one day be tested in space.
A space-dust repeller, an augmented-reality headset and a wearable container for rock samples are among the project proposals chosen for the BIG Idea Challenge and other NASA programmes.
All of the projects were born from the Rhode Island School of Design s (RISD) Space Design club, which was formed in autumn 2020.
It succeeds the RSID Rover club, which was launched to compete in the annual NASA Human Exploration Rover Challenge but had to disband because the work of building and racing vehicles as a team was not possible during the pandemic.
