Freelancer is excited to reveal the winners of the Who Let the Gas Out? NASA Tank Venting Challenge! The goal of the Competition was to develop a novel solution for the venting of ullage contents from a partially full propellant tank in space, aiming to minimize the loss of propellant. This ullage venting solution would help allow the adjustment of pressure in the receiving tank prior to, during, and/or after the liquid propellant transfer. Launched in October 2023 and completed in February 2024, the challenge offered a total prize pool of $80,000 USD for designs of a complete concept design of a tank venting solution. The winners of the Challenge are: First Place - Kevin M. Crosby and Alvaro Romero-Calvo from Kenosha, WI, USA; Atlanta, GA, USA ($30,000 USD). Second Place - Widgetblender (Team Leader: Jeffrey Morse) from Virginia, USA ($15,000 USD) Second Place - c* Suite (Team leader: Samantha Graham), from Pleasanton, CA, USA ($15,000 USD) Third Place - Nazarii Vareshchuk from Lutsk, Ukraine ($10,000 USD) Third Place - Derek McFall from Detroit, Michigan ($10,000 USD) To learn more about the winning solutions, visit: https://lnkd.in/g9D6A_wr NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration
