Our two sponsored Space Camp winners had to work on many tasks to help their team complete their mission at the Space Camp for Interested Visually Impaired Students (SCIVIS). One of the team projects was an Extra-Vehicular Activity (EVA) in the 5 Degrees of Freedom (5DF) Chair building an ACCESS tower.
