There’s a new collaborative space at NASA’s Langley Research Center – and it’s full of high-tech machines where the only limit is the imagination.
The Larkworks MakerSpace is a new facility that is open for the workforce of Langley, and is designed to spark imagination by providing a welcoming environment where staff can use a variety of tools, equipment and resources to be creative, develop new ideas and solve tough problems.
The MakerSpace combines small-scale manufacturing tools, community and education to enable its members to design, prototype and create in new and exciting ways. Available equipment includes a wide variety of 3D printers, electronics parts and robotics kits, a laser-cutting room, computer numerical control mills, a virtual reality station, as well as more sophisticated tools catered specifically to the needs of Langley researchers.
