In 2008, composites engineer Frank Huber suggested to them that the missions of Middle Georgia College and Genesis Engineering Solutions might mesh well. At the time, Middle Georgia trained aircraft structural technicians and Genesis made tools and parts for NASA's Hubble Space Telescope servicing missions. Huber was right. What emerged was a partnership that helped each of their organizations grow while giving hands-on manufacturing experience to dozens of students. This was not just any experience, but experience building critical components of the James Webb Space Telescope scheduled for launch in 2018. Here, Krontz and Rashford describe how they assembled a team of students and professionals to make components for NASA's $8 billion James Webb Space Telescope.
