Visitors Explore NASA at Ingenuity Fest 

NASA’s Glenn Research Center participated in the Cleveland Ingenuity Fest 2024: Take Flight on Sept. 27-29. Ingenuity Fest, held at the 300,000-square-foot Hamilton Collaborative, features artwork, musicians, dancers, poets, and performances of all types. It also highlights maker and innovator exhibits, fine art, and more. 

NASA Glenn’s staff shared opportunities for the community to engage directly with NASA through prize challenges, crowdsourcing, and citizen science. Through these platforms, the public can make an impact on NASA’s mission by providing innovative solutions to address the agency’s needs.

I vowed from that day on to get his hands on as many tech products as possible. My approach to a review is to make it informative for the technofile while still making it understandable to everyone.
