AI in Aerospace

Students will be introduced to different types of artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms, including those used to operate space-based platforms (such as satellites). Students will then learn about jobs relating to the building and continuous improvement of machine learning tools. Throughout this lesson, students will be engaged in mini activities that include learning about coding, problem solving, and working in teams to build their communication skills. By the end of the week, students will play an interactive game to save the world! In teams, students will take on the roles of engineers and scientists to identify and solve anomalies and errors encountered by a deployed satellite system. Together, students will resolve these errors, assigning each to the right STEM professional to make sure that critical data collected by the satellite are sent back to Earth to be used in making high consequence decisions.
