We welcomed three highly motivated Saudi high-school students, who engaged in the six-week intensive core research program. The research projects were under the supervision of RISC Lab faculty: Prof. Eric Feron and Prof. Shinkyu Park . Each student was assigned a mentor guiding them in the laboratory work and discussion of project details.

Ingenuity – the small, unmanned solar helicopter - rose 3 m over the ground and hovered in the thin Martian air for about 40 seconds. Ingenuity landed on Mars attached to the underside of the Perseverance rover on February 18, 2021. Before Ingenuity, the first flight on a planet beyond Earth was an unpowered balloon carried on Venus by the Soviet probe Vega 1, in 1985.

Control and optimization of the system are complicated by half of the installed power - wind and solar sources - being non-controllable with high uncertainty and variability. In this work, we present a novel optimization technique for efficient use of the production facilities.
