The NASA students pose in front of a 747 and the Hiller

After a very early, wake up call (for some of us not as early as it should have been) and 2am departure time we made it safely to the airport and onto our flight to the San Jose Airport.
Our first stop of the morning was the Tech Museum of Innovation.
