NASA Hunch
HUNCH is an instructional partnership between NASA and high schools and
intermediate/middle schools. This partnership benefits both NASA and students. NASA receives
cost-effective hardware, while students receive real-world hands-on experiences. A spin-off of
this teaming is the inspiration of the next generation of researchers and space explorers.
NASA provides materials, equipment and mentoring that is required to fabricate the items.
NASA also provides quality inspection oversight during the fabrication of these items.
The school will provide technical direction to the students, and provide a safe working
environment. http://www.nasahunch.com/2011/09/james-madison-hs/
