Space is not a destination. Or a tourist attraction. Or a delivery
route. Space is a place to do. It’s an unlimited resource of untapped
potential, and Lockheed Martin is developing the innovations and
technology the world needs to unlock its possibilities. But when it
comes to unlocking the universe, we need the brightest minds to help us
do it.
So, to go about finding the rising stars in the world of engineering,
McCann NY and Lockheed Martin created the ultimate test: a challenge
box. But not just any box. A 14-foot tall, mysterious inky-black
monolith that can only be unlocked if you’re able to solve one of the
world’s most impossible aerospace equations. In fact, the exact equation
was a problem Lockheed Martin engineers had to solve for a real-world
satellite mission. Lockheed Martin is bringing the box to some of the
top engineering schools in America, starting with Virginia Tech. We’ll
challenge students to see if they have the space skills it takes to
unlock the box, and earn themselves the chance for a future at Lockheed
Martin. But what exactly will they be unlocking? The universe. Inside,
the winner will experience a 360-degree audio/visual journey though the
stars, culminating with a grand prize and possibility of a job at
Lockheed Martin where they can unlock the unknown on a daily basis.
Following Virginia Tech, the box will travel to a series of multi-day
events taking place at the top engineering universities and
networking/recruiting events across the country with new challenges and
prizes.
