Team 2 with their
experiment ‘Nanoparticles’,
Team 3 with ‘Enzyme reaction
experiment’, Team 10 ‘Foam to
treat internal bleeding’, Team
14 ‘The speed of slime mould on
different materials’, Team 19
‘Flatworm freefall’, and Team
23 ‘Investigating Krill in space’
were announced as
the finalists.
The final stage involved
delivering their
presentations in front of the
judges again, but also the
23 other teams at Mission
Discovery Ayrshire.
Team 14 – made up
of James Abbott,
Pip Abramson, Laura
Borthwick, Dylan Goldie,
Robyn McMahon, Jas
McNee, Lynne Mitchell,
Ania Myskowska – were
celebrating come the end of
the week as their idea was
chosen to go to space!
However in truth, everyone
was celebrating the success
of the Mission Discovery
Ayrshire programme, with
ISSET Director Chris Barber
declaring it one of the best
programmes they have
ever been involved in.

the Mission Discovery
week on the Ayrshire
