Congratulations to everyone who competed – you gave the judges an extremely difficult task; their deliberations took a lot longer than usual.

The twelve NASA bound students from the winning company, (Doueldyne-Flechtel), will be announced later today.

The winning team consisted of students from Henrietta Barnett School, Riddlesdown Collegiate, Sutton Grammar School, SPS Science Club, Westminster Academy and Westminster School. 

There is also an opportunity for outstanding contributors from other companies to join the EU team in the International Finals at the Johnson Space Center: details of  when these results will be announced will also be published tonight.
