Elementary Students in Hawaii Remotely Operate NASA Rovers for World Leaders

11.15.11



During the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Leaders Conference held Nov. 7-13, 2011, NASA collaborated with the University of Hawai’i Pacific International Space Center for Exploration Systems (PISCES) to share the excitement of exploration and robotics technology with elementary school children and even some APEC delegates.

在11月份举行的APEC会议期间，NASA和PISCES合作，与当地小学生和APEC的代表一起分享了用机器人来探索未知的快乐。

At the conference, PISCES set up a booth for APEC delegates to view real-time educational demonstrations of NASA rovers at a Lunar/Mars analog site on Hawaii's Big Island. The rovers, developed by the NASA Lunar Science Institute’s Exploration Uplink Project at NASA Ames Research Center Moffett Field, Calif., were driven remotely by children in Hawaiian schools.

在会议期间，PISCES设立了一个展位让APEC的代表来观看实时的教学演示。这些演示为NASA的漫游车在设立于夏威夷Big Island月/火模拟设施内的活动。这个由NASA月球科学学会开发的漫游车，由夏威夷的小朋友们远距离操纵。

“The actual activity was about giving young students the opportunity to drive and learn the difficulties and challenges of remote exploration, including having fun,” said Greg Schmidt, deputy director of the NASA Lunar Science Institute at NASA Ames. “It was an added benefit when the APEC delegates drove the rover at the end of each school day.”

“这个活动是为了向年轻学生提供机会来驾驶漫游车并了解远距离探索的困难和挑战。当然，从中获得快乐也是很重要的。”NASA月球科学学会的副会长Greg Schmidt这样说。“能够让APEC的代表们也能够驾驶漫游车是一个额外的收获。”

After watching the rovers traverse the moon- and Mars-like terrain, delegates had a better understanding of the challenges NASA faces during its remote operations on other worlds, and the excitement that this interaction brings to students. The rover demonstrations also revealed the opportunities for discovery and development of other worlds enabled by NASA information technology and robotic technology.

在观看了漫游车在模拟月面和火面的表面上穿越过程后，代表们更深刻的认识到了NASA在远距离操作中的挑战。他们也同时感受到了这些与学生互动中的乐趣。这个漫游车的展示也回顾了NASA的信息技术和机器人技术为探索和发现其它世界所带来的机会。

In addition, NASA helped showcase the Mauna Kea Observatories, some of the most important land-based astronomy sites in the world.

另外，NASA也帮助展示了Mauna Kea天文台。它是世界上几个重要的地基天文台之一。

While in Hawaii representatives of the NASA Exploration Uplink visited numerous schools and showed students various NASA lunar science activities, including geology and space science. Class discussions included answering questions about networking, science information data collecting and communications during exploration. Students took a keen interest in the various challenges NASA has to overcome during their remote operations on other worlds.


兔子啥时候也让小兔子们过过瘾啊？
