Howdy Bots - FRC #6377

@fireflyspace @virginia_tech Go Alex! #mentoring @FRCTeams @HowdyBots6377

For some, engineering is just a job, but for Alex Kaplan, it’s a mission to inspire the next generation. A Richmond, Virginia native, Deep Run High School graduate, and @virginia_tech Hokie, Alex grew up with a passion for space exploration. Now, his work is headed to the Moon! With a master’s from @Stanford, Alex is proud to see #BlueGhost evolve from concept to reality, soon to operate on the lunar surface. “There’s something extraordinary about placing hardware in the one place visible from anywhere on Earth,” Alex shares. #GhostRiders
