Five Romanian high school students made it to the final of a NASA & MIT competition, after creating a software that allows control over satellites which photograph asteroids. A team of five from the Nicolae Bălcescu high school in Cluj – Napoca in Central Romania qualified for the final of the ZeroRobotics, which took place at the European Space Agency HQ in the Netherlands. The Romanian team Callisto came 8th in the competition. NASA, the Massachusets Institute of Technology – MIT and the European Space Agency have been organizing the ZeroRobotics robotics programming competition yearly since 2009. This year, three teams made it to the first position: two US teams and an Italian one. Zero Robotics now runs two annual competitions, one for middle school and one for high school. editor@romania-insider.com
