The project of some students from the Technical University of Bucharest could change the way space stations will be developed in the future. It’s a welding experiment that will soon take place on a suborbital rocket.
It is a first for a team of future space engineers from Romania, but also from Europe. Theodora Maria Pasăre, Dragoș Munteanu and Mihail Remus Palade are just three of the ten team members, all students at the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering at the Polytechnic University in Romanian Capital, Bucharest.
This premiere marks an important stage not only for Romania, but also for Europe. The previous experiments in which Romania was involved addressed other types of technologies, which underlines the uniqueness of this approach.
Theodora explained that their project is distinctive and that they are excited about the contribution they can make to the field of space engineering. They believe that the technology developed will have a significant impact on how future space stations will be made, optimizing assembly and welding processes in microgravity conditions.
“Our experience is original, the technology is entirely created by us. The project in which we participate had two other teams from Romania, in the past years, but with a different type of experiment”, explains Theo.
This suborbital experiment represents a step forward in the education and professional training of students, giving them a rare opportunity to work on a project of international scope. Their success could open new avenues for further aerospace collaborations and stimulate young people’s interest in careers in science and technology.
