Excellent example of engineers having a direct effect on important policies!
A cybersecurity executive order issued Jan. 16 was the result of a monthslong review by the Biden administration of hacking by criminals and foreign governments the last four years, and was aided by input from @CornellMAE’s Gregory Falco ’10. news.cornell.edu/stories/202…

Inspired by the particle-capturing mechanism of snails, Maha Haji and Sunny Jung will use a new $2.6M grant from @SeaGrant to continue work on a microplastic collecting robot called MOLLUSCA.
#SeaGrant announces $27M for #MarineDebris removal and prevention projects across the nation! Learn how these projects bring together #science & #communities for solutions that work: bit.ly/MarineDebris24 #PlasticFreeJuly

ALT Ghost nets pose an entanglement threat to all the wildlife found in Papahānaumokuākea. They will continue to destroy coral reefs and entangle wildlife until they are removed from the habitat. Native seabirds like the Laysan albatross (mōlī) and Black-footed albatross (kaʻupu) are heavily impacted by marine debris. Marine debris also impacts Hawaiian green sea turtles (honu) and endangered native species like the Hawaiian monk seal (ʻIlio holo I ka uaua) and Laysan duck (koloa pohaka).

So awesome to have taken part in such a momentous occasion and to be in the same room with so many of our illustrious alums! I especially loved hearing about MAE history & how Cornell MAE was so pivotal to MAE in the US!
We were proud to celebrate 150 years of @CornellMAE yesterday! We reflected on our history with former directors, explored the present with student-led tours, and envisioned the future with alumni from @NASAJPL, @SpaceX, and @exploreplanets. 🚀On to the next 150 years! #Sibley150
