Join us on Saturday, Sept. 6, for a tour of the GRUVE Lab, a virtual reality environment for NASA scientists and engineers.

Man stands in the GRUVE lab. In this lab, scientists can visualize the results of experiments performed on supercomputers, and engineers can see three-dimensional representations of their designs as they create rockets and aircraft components.

During your tour, you'll see demonstrations of tools and techniques Glenn engineers have used on recent projects, including a jet engine design and a virtual-reality model of the Internationl Space Station.
