A group of Ohio State University College of Engineering senior capstone students and faculty, along with a team of NASA engineers, are developing a robotic laser welding machine that can manufacture and join materials in space. The research project is funded by the Ohio Federal Research Network, which is managed by Parallax Advanced Research. During the first week of classes this semester, Ohio Stateā€™s LUNAR Weld team traveled to Santa Maria, California, to test the machineā€™s capability in microgravity through parabolic flight, in which an aircraft flies up and down at 45Āŗ angles to reproduce gravity-free conditions.  by Casey Coughlin, FABE communications specialist http://engineering.osu.edu | twitter.com/osuengineering | instagram.com/osuengineering | facebook.com/osuengineering ...more
