KU hopes to participate in NASA program
When Discovery roars into the sky Nov. 20, the launch date NASA tentatively announced Tuesday, it will be carrying a secret Defense Department payload.
By Travis Butler
Kansan staff writer
But the KU Space Program will be anticipating another shuttle payload, one that they hope to send into space sometime after next year.
The club is taking advantage of a National Aeronautics and Space Administration program called the Getaway Special, said president Mahyar Rahbararr, the late senior. The program allows groups to launch experimental packages of a specified size into orbit and return them to earth at relatively little cost. The club is preparing a package of five experiments that they hope will be ready to go up in about a year.
Once the package is finished, the launch time will be up to NASA, Rahbarrad said.
"They don't put us in the schedule until most of the work is done," he said. "As far as I know, the Getaway Specials have not been canceled. The experiment canisters that have been assigned launch numbers will go up as NASA is ready. But they are not assigning new launch numbers."
The project was slowed considerably last year when Student Senate did not approve the group's request for financial support, he said. Club members had to concentrate on getting this support, instead of working on designs and prototypes.
Saeed Farokhi, the program's faculty adviser, said. "They are still moving on, though at a very slow pace."
Rahbarrad said, "It was slowed down, but it has picked up again now. Money is not a problem now, and back to doing engineering work."
The club received a donation of $1,000 last year from MicroCraft, a California company, he said. The
dean of engineering, Carl Locke,
matched the donation.
"I've been impressed that the group was completely a student initiative, and that they've been able to keep it going." Locke said. "When the group's founder graduated, I thought it would fall apart, but Mahyar stepped in and took over the group, and it continued."
Some of the money is now being spent on parts to put together prototypes for the experiments, testing systems on a small scale, Rahbarad said.
"We're getting some pieces together," he said. "Most of the preliminary design work is finished, so we can start buying things."
The club is tentatively planning to have the package completed and ready for a year from now, Rahbarrad said. A definite schedule is not possible because the space club is a volunteer group, and members have other activities, such as tests, that can interfere.
It's time you gave yourself a GSE
If you sexually active, you should know about the GSE. GSE stands for genital self-examination. Its a simple examination you can give yourself to check for any signs or symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection (STI). It is important because when it comes to sexual relationships, there are some important things to look out for.
