1902 Wright Kite Dedication

Mr. Glueck speaks to "NEW" Participants.
On June 17, 2002, Dick Glueck, sixth grade science teacher from Orono Middle School, Maine, delivered a one-half scale replica of the Wright Brothers 1902 glider to NASA Glenn Research Center. The glider was built by the students as part of their aerospace curriculum, and will be used in various educational events as a prelude to the 100th anniversary of powered flight, and the Bicentennial of Ohio events that will take place next year. Under Mr. Glueck's direction, the students of the Orono Middle School have been building full-scale replicas of historic aerospace vehicles for the past decade. Mr. Glueck has been named one of the "All American Teachers" by USA Today and has been showcased on Good Morning America for his past projects with his students. He is shown here briefing senior officials at Glenn Research Center and addressing the NASA Educators Workshop participants of 2002.
