Abstract

Introduction

Started off by commencing the powerpoint slide activity and ending it by answering all correct answers.

The distance between objects in space is difficult to imagine. We commonly measure distance on Earth in inches, feet, and miles. The scale of outer space is so great that it requires a different unit of measure: the light-year. A light-year is the distance that light travels in one year, about 6 trillion miles.

Introduction

Turbine engines have predictable performance based altering several parameters. This predictability allows an engine to be designed with the assistance of a software simulator. This reduces design cost and improves safety and performance.

Air Foil

Methods

1. Start the PC and launch the FoilSim applet or FoilSim online version which can be found at http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/K-12/airplane/foil3.html.

Discussion

1. Explain how this tool could help aircraft designers?

Traveling faster in air.

2. What factors made the largest impact on thrust and fuel flow?

The different type of shapes and forms

Abstract

Introduction

The project began with designing a plane through a simulator and now we are building it with wood

The AERY Glider Design Software package provides an easy to use interface for creating a glider design. The software package will perform the calculations required to predict the stability of flight for the designed glider and provide feedback on corrective actions to improve on this stability

Methods

1. Participate in the teacher demonstration of the AERY software through active listening. Ask questions when the demonstrated technique is unclear. Record notes when you are unlikely to remember a particular technique.

2. Start the AERY software loaded on your PC or using the online version at the link:http://home.comcast.net/~estenson/aery/aery.htm. The software automatically initiates a new design.

Able to build a plane and let it fly a certain distance from point A to point B.

Different types of designs determine the distance the gliders travel distance.

Introduction

In this project, your teacher may have you work alone or with a partner. If you work with a partner, it would be best for you to divide the responsibilities. However, you will need to be sure you understand what your partner did and you will need to explain to your partner what you did as each of you will be responsible for all of the work of your team.

Discussion

Conclusion: learned about the nozzel, turbine, burner, shaft, compressor, and Inlet.

Introduction

Frame construction is used throughout the aerospace industry in the creation of welded steel-tube fuselages, piston-engine motor mounts, ribs, and landing gear. In this activity you will gain understanding of the frame generator built into Autodesk® Inventor®.

Methods

  • Launch Autodesk Inventor.
  • Select the Help icon on the top right corner. This will connect to the WikiHelp webpage.

Discussion

Used the Inventor Software in order to complete the generator by extruding and measuring it to the right size.

Introduction

Space law was developed to develop space for the good of humankind. This resource is protected and its development is coordinated through a system of agreements between many nations and disputes are resolved through the application of Space Law.

Space Law

Team Members

High School

Methods

  • Choose a space law case that resulted in a judgment.
  • Research and prepare a presentation describing at least the following information:
  • The span of dates involved.
  • The countries and companies were involved.
  • The major influences on the decision.
  • Potential outcomes if space law did not exist
  • Present your research to the class

Discussion

  • Describe space law cases that you foresee in the future.

-I think space junk will become and issue in the future.

  • Explain how the exploitation of space could be affected by the absence of space law?

- without space law there will not be any order in space which will lead to a lot of space junk and satellites not being correctly placed and used.
