This featured image was shared by Joseph Ciotti, a recently retired professor and Project Imua manager, and highlighted by the University of Hawai'i as its image of the week.
Each week the University of Hawai'i highlights an image shared by faculty and students. For this feature, the university spotlighted a Project Imua photo supplied by Professor Joseph Ciotti, an associate director at Windward Community College.
Image Spotlight
"The earth from 100 miles up. Windward Community College's innovative sublimation rocket ScubeR photographed at apogee by Honolulu Community College's onboard deck camera. NASA's discarded Malemute second stage rocket visible at lower left. Funded by the Hawai'i Space Grant Consortium, Mission 10 was UH Community Colleges Project Imua's fourth payload launched into space from NASA Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia."
The image captures the kind of hands-on aerospace work that Project Imua makes possible for students across the University of Hawai'i Community Colleges. By combining engineering, experimentation, and launch operations, the program gives students direct experience with spaceflight missions and research payloads.
