🎉Congrats to the winners of our 2024
#RoverChallenge
! Teams, we hope this weekend has filled you with memories that will last a lifetime. Here's to seeing you back at
#NASAHERC
again next year🏎
Let's take a moment to applaud the amazing
#NASAHERC
volunteers!
Our behind-the-scenes team helps the students get their rovers competition-ready in the pit, performs safety checks to ensure the rovers meet challenge criteria, maintains the challenge course, and much more!…
Aside from making it through the
#NASAHERC
course within the eight-minute time limit, teams can also complete mission tasks along the way to earn points!
The points earned from these mission tasks contribute to the teams’ overall scores. 🏆
Two is better than one...especially when it comes to rovers!✌️
Day 2 of
#NASAHERC
is here and the teams are getting ready to hit the course. Follow along on our accounts all day long for updates.
The last few rovers have crossed the finish line for day 1 of
#NASAHERC
! Join us again tomorrow for day 2 and our awards ceremony.
Teams, go rest up for your final lap! 🏁
Ready, set, go! The
@RoverChallenge
is on 🏁
This weekend, high school & college teams from 24 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and 12 other nations will put their student-built, people-powered rovers to the test.
