Lunar Habitat News Coverage
Saturday’s Bangor Daily News included a front-page story about a Friday event unveiling a NASA lunar habitat that’s been assembled at UMaine for research work in the Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering. The UMaine research will focus on the wireleess sensor technology that would be vital to monitoring conditions and protecting the astronauts who would live in such a facility on the moon or another planet. The BDN story included comments from professors Ali Abedi and Mauricio Pereira da Cunha, as well as NASA official George Studor. The three Bangor television stations, WLBZ, WABI and WVII, also provided coverage.
