The solar houses are going up on the National Mall. Here is a link to the Department of Energy's Solar Decathlon website, where you can find an eight-minute video about OSU's entry in the competition. The last of the four photos above (yes, that's one of the towers of the Smithsonian castle in the background) was taken on Monday, October 5. The OSU solar house is directly adjacent to the Smithsonian Metro stop. For live coverage of the OSU solar house, click here.
October 13 update: From top to bottom, the photos show Rep. Charlie Wilson and Rep. Zach Space arriving at the solar house for the Tea with President Gee on Tuesday, October 13 (Glenn Fellow Josh Kramer at far right); Rep. Patrick Tiberi posing with Gregory Washington, Dean of the College of Engineering, and members of the OSU solar decathlon team at the October 8 open house; Rep. Tiberi touring the solar house; team member Rob Hedge standing in front of the OSU solar house on October 8; and the October 5 photo accompanying the original post.
October 13 update: The Leader Board now shows OSU at #9 in the Solar Decathlon competition. Go Bucks!
October 16 update: It looks as if we've finished 10th. Can we demand a recount?
hey! there I am! (Josh)
