Four Mankato students and two Mankato educators (including MnSTA Webmaster and educator Eric Koser) will be spending a week at NASA's Johnson Space Center testing a Satellite Launching Experimental Device that they designed and built!

The team of students from both Mankato East and Mankato West was one of ten selected from across the nation to participate in NASA's Microgravity University!
