They competed against other schools from the region to design and build a device capable of lifting and moving a radioactive meteorite from a safe distance of 1.5m, with a very limited set of materials.

The girls did very well and completed the task confidently, setting the meteorite down perfectly on the target. Congratulations to the team on their achievement.
