Throughout history the same question has been asked by many mentors, from blacksmiths and cobblers to engineers and scientists. Now, at NASA Ames Research Center, it has been answered once again. Over the summer of 2018, the aeromechanics branch at NASA Ames Research Center was overrun by 53 Interns with backgrounds ranging from physics and engineering to education, from high school students to graduate students, causing this branch's population to grow by 50 percent. The Aeromechanics Office at NASA Ames Research Center is responsible for aeromechanics research activities that directly support the civil competiveness of the U.S. helicopter industry and the vertical lift requirements of the Department of Defense. The interns were set off to assist with work related to vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) technology and vertiport counterparts, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), 3D modeling (CAD), and projects that may even escape this world to Earth's neighbors Mars and Venus. More than 20,000 man-hours were dedicated to completing over 41 projects.
