Students starting Vatican II anniversary revered MU space program Historic council Engineering group hopes to launch first satellite by 2014 By Eric Oliver eric.oliver@marquette.edu

The Marquette Space Engineering team is hoping to raise the school to new heights in the coming years. The team, currently made up of 13 students and their adviser, Robert Bishop, dean of the College of Engineering, is hoping to launch its first satellite by 2014. “Building a satellite isn’t an everyday occurrence, so really

the objective here is to just get Marquette into space,” Bishop said. “The objective after that depends on what students really want to do.” The team is open to all students and will be holding a meeting in Haggerty Hall room 199 on Oct. 25 for those interested in joining. “Space exploration isn’t just for engineers,” Bishop said. “It’s for all students who feel the need to explore and think that space is a great avenue for people hoping to explore. We want to inspire students to reach for a place they wouldn’t normally reach for.”
