Have you ever wondered what affects a G force has on the body or how space travel affects the physiology of humans? Do you know how pilots and astronauts overcome issues related to these affects and if there are long term consequences of flight? Flight physiology is an area of study and design that has come a long way in the past century but still has many unexplored areas. Your challenge is to research an approved focus area, determine what advancements have already been made, and add creative ideas related to issues in this field of study. Project Constraints: Daily logs and all research recorded in engineering journal All least 4 sources (of at least 2 different types) cited in APA format Creative presentation board / model based on research and original ideas 3-5 minutes for presentation Your presentation board / model must include the required information: - Explanation of the science behind the topic (under normal conditions and flight conditions) - History of the research completed in your focus area (including dates, events, and people) - Your ideas on an experiment that could be conducted OR a possible solution related to an issue in your focus area - Annotated Visuals - Wow factor - APA Citations Project Criteria: Info. is thorough, factual, and accompanied with visuals Your original idea are clear, plausible, and creative Presentation board / model is professional and creative Presentation board / model can stand alone Presentation is interesting and effectively delivered Wow factor is creative
