About us

We are a team of highly motivated students who are passionate about the complete design process, from ideation to creation. We used to be Cornell Micro-g, a team that designed and manufactured a new space tool every year for NASA’s Micro-g competition. Our tools competed against those from other schools and were tested by NASA divers in their Neutral Buoyancy Lab.

However, we wanted a bigger challenge with a more robust competition. We’re switching gears this year, and moving to the Roboboat competition, one where we will be tasked to create an autonomous watercraft. Although we’ve pivoted to a different competition, nothing has changed about our passion and motivation to learn and create.
