Blimp Competition at Aerospace Day Blimp Competition at Aerospace Day
Blimp Competition at Aerospace Day
It's that time of year again to register for Aerospace Day! For those of you who haven't heard about it:

The November biannual Aerospace Day will be held at the University of Michigan in the Francois-Xavier Bagnoud Building (1320 Beal Ave., Ann Arbor, MI) and will take place on Saturday, November 23rd from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. Also, this event is free!

The U-M Student Chapter of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) and the U-M Department of Aerospace Engineering will be sponsoring:
● An exciting display of Michigan aerospace engineering students' class projects, featuring remote-controlled blimp and hovercraft races
● Fun STEM activities for K-12 students coordinated by our student project teams
● A separate blimp-building activity for high school students
● Tours of the Michigan aerospace engineering department labs and Wilson Student Team Project Center
● Mini rockets
● Opportunity to learn more about STEM and aerospace engineering
● Breakfast and lunch for all parents and participants (at no cost!)

There are multiple activities that cater to different age groups from K-12 so all students are welcome to sign up! Younger students (elementary/middle school) can participate in various fun STEM activities designed by our project teams. For high school students, we are pleased to offer a separate activity for the day: a mini-project on blimp-building and design. Students will also have the option of touring the aerospace engineering department instead of participating in the activities.

Registration is currently closed.


Please contact us if you have any questions, and we hope to see you at Aerospace Day in November! Once you have signed up additional information will follow.
