🛩 Innovation Workshop is in full swing, and we dropped in on one of the Quick Success sessions — Rubber Flight!

Skoltech master's students are already attending workshops, diving into prototyping, and learning to think like real engineers and inventors. We won't spill all the details — we want to keep some intrigue for future applicants. 😉

Today, we're giving you a peek into one of the most exciting challenges — Rubber Flight. It's not just about rapid prototyping to meet customer requirements. It's a technical sport where innovative thinking meets unexpected constraints, and familiar materials reveal entirely new possibilities.

There's also a romantic twist behind Rubber Flight. Imagine an engineer-innovator, inspired by Shakespeare, who decides to send a message to his Juliet. But not by letter — using a flying device that must reliably deliver the message straight to the window of his locked‑away beloved. Not an easy task, but that only fuels our inventors' enthusiasm!

Stay tuned — we'll be sharing the most exciting moments from the Innovation Workshop!
