Nine Temple engineering students who spent the past year designing and building two experiments that were launched June 23 aboard the two-stage solid booster rocket Terrier Orion II were part of RockSat, a NASA and Colorado Space Grant Consortium program that prepares students to design payloads for space flight.

Twenty-seven Delaware Valley high school students got hands-on experience in basic concepts of electrical engineering at Temple this summer in a five-week introductory electrical engineering course taught by electrical and computer engineering Associate Professor John Helferty.
