A squad of undergraduates from the Jacobs School got to wing inwards zero-G over the weekend on a special NASA plane. They were studying how biofuels dismiss inwards space. Their enquiry could Pb to improve dismiss extinguishers for the International Space Station together with to a greater extent than efficient combustion engines hither on earth. Nico Montoya, a sophomore majoring inwards aerospace engineering, took some fourth dimension to response our questions nearly the mission on the Jacobs School Facebook page today. Nico, who is also an IDEA Scholar, was on the team's basis crew.
The Q&A alongside him is below.

You may direct hold seen some of the stories on the Jacobs School students who of late tested how biofuels dismiss inwards near-zero-gravity conditions. We are planning to chat alongside i of students, Nico Montoya, together with peradventure a couplet of others. Nico, are you lot here?
