Students with the I.Q. Robotic Team at Our Lady of Malibu were invited to demonstrate their latest robotics inventions and meet with NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden at Aerojet Rocketdyne in Canoga Park.
Bolden’s visit included a tour of the facilities and a review of the company’s vision to make a journey to Mars.
In a release from Rocketdyne, “The future astronauts who will go to Mars are the children in school today,” explained Scott Seymour, president and chief executive officer of Aerojet Rocketdyne. “I hope the passion these children showed with their robotics demonstrations will last throughout their lifetimes and inspire some of them to end up making the trip to Mars.”
