BRAINSTEM: SPECIALISTS/MANAGERS: Aerospace Astronautical/Civil Engineering (10 WEEK SERIES) (Grade 2-7 Co-Ed) Dates: Thursdays 3:00 to 4:30 pm in the music, Jan 10, 17, 24, 31, Feb. 7, 14, 21, 28, March 7, 14 (students come to the music at the dismissal bell) Description: Aerospace engineering (6 weeks) involves the design and construction of planes and space shuttles. Aeronautical engineering covers crafts that stay inside the Earth’s atmosphere (such as commercial planes) while astronautical engineering covers craft that leave the Earth’s atmosphere (theory and practice of navigation beyond Earth’s atmosphere, such as space shuttles). In this program the specialist and managers will learn about the fundamentals of astronautical industry discovering about aerodynamics; gravity; velocity; acceleration; forces to lift, drag and thrust objects; aerodynamics like Bernoulli principle; and space environment characteristics.
