Wichita State graduate student Caleb Gimar has gained amazing hands-on learning experience working on a research project with NASA.

The astrophysics and technology study, alongside physics professor Nickolas Solomey, is for the development of a solar neutrino spacecraft -- a detector that could move close to the sun.

Gimar has had a passion for physics for as long as he can remember and is grateful for this opportunity. 

"Innovating opportunities such as these are exciting because, in reality, we are doing something rather unprecedented," says Gimar.
