Dive (or drive) into the challenge of designing the transportation of the future! In this action-packed class, we will create exciting futuristic vehicles. Students will design a car powered solely by solar energy and create a hot rod that moves by mousetrap. They also will make a hovercraft vehicle that soars above the road and build a speedster race car powered by a rubber band. No prior experience is necessary.
Note: This class is designed for middle school students. The Sally Ride Science Junior Academy courses are designed to inspire young adults to pursue careers in STE[+a]M.
