On 6th November North Yorkshire LN supported the Engineering Extravaganza at the National Stem Centre in York. The IET was one of four PEIs at the event again this year. The challenge set for the children from 4 schools was to design and test a parachute for a Mars Rover lander. The parachutes were made with simple materials and descents timed with a Microbit. The event generated a lot of interest and competition between teams, and great fun was had by all.
