The mission: Discover the brightest engineering minds capable of unlocking the untapped potential of space through cutting-edge innovations.

The solution: Create an extraordinary 14-foot tall challenge box – an inky-black monolith that held the key to the universe.

To enter this enigmatic box, students had to solve real aerospace equations that Lockheed Martin engineers had tackled during actual satellite missions.

Debuting at the International Space Symposium, with attendance by high-ranking military officials and legendary space technologists, the Challenge Box then embarked on a tour of the top engineering schools in the US, where the brightest minds vied to experience the 360-degree audio/visual journey. The project successfully scouted top talent for space exploration and showcased Lockheed Martin as a trailblazing and exciting employer in aerospace technology.
