=====================
Science presenter Rani Price meets Abbie Hutty, a young structural engineer, who describes her job and some of the space projects she has worked on. Abbie talks about her role in the construction of a satellite called BepiColombo, and her latest project working on a Mars rover.
As a structural engineer, she evaluates the technological components of the rover. She also describes the programming that allows the rover to solve complex problems and make its own decisions. Abbie then describes how her science education led her to a career in engineering.
This clip is from the BBC series Beneath the Lab Coat, a series which provides inspiration for teenagers with an interest in science to find out about some of the most exciting jobs of the future.

Teaching Physics or Design?
Students could come up with a brief for their own rover vehicle. This could be for use on Mars, another planet or on Earth. Working in groups, they should consider the terrain their vehicle will encounter, how it will be powered, how it will be controlled and how best to avoid maintenance issues. For a longer project, they could go on to produce prototypes of their vehicles.
This clip will be relevant for teaching Physics, Chemistry and Design. This topic appears in OCR, Edexcel, AQA, WJEC KS4 and GCSE in England and Wales, CCEA GCSE in Northern Ireland and SQA National 4, 5 and Higher in Scotland.
