Day 5 – Top Secret Project

Arriving on centennial campus today, I had no plans aside from completing my airplane models. Last Friday, a mechatronics student suggested that I stop by their lab sometime this week. It just so happened that I ran into him this morning and he was enthusiastic about giving me a tour right then and there.

Walking into their lab, there was a wide variety of aircrafts. It ranged from quadcopters to stick airplanes to rockets. Straight off the bat, I was asked the question, “are you a US citizen?” With the answer being yes, was I totally welcomed into the room. The reason for this question is because of a disclosed project that was US citizens only. The extremely simplified project description is that it is a submergible airplane. It can move around underwater like a submarine and can fly like a normal airplane. If anyone would like to know more, there are one or two videos on YouTube. A picture from one of those videos is below. I am unsure how much I am allowed to share about this project, therefore, I will not be going in depth.
