Westlake Team competes in outer space ! Literally !
The Westlake Team participated in Zero Robotics, a programming competition/contest hosted by MIT and sponsored by companies like NASA where objects called SPHERES are programmed to complete a certain mission autonomously. The competition starts online and after several phases of virtual competition in a simulation environment that mimics the real SPHERES, finalists are selected to compete in a live championship aboard the ISS. Out of over 200 teams, our Westlake team not only went all the way to the finals but placed in the top 6 as well! Please congratulate the following individuals and mentor: Lynn Rosier (mentor), Viren Velacheri (captain), Nikhil Gumma, Geethika Hemkumar, Lillian Sun, Angela Fei
