Kennedy Space Center, Florida
On February 11, 2009, Roland gave a presentation to lifting engineers of NASA and the members of the American Nuclear Crane Committee in the Kennedy Space Center, Florida.
The seminar created a lot of interest in the subject of wire rope. Roland was invited again and gave a presentation to a much larger audience on November 4, 2009. After the seminar, Roland was awarded a certificate as a "Distinguished Speaker" of the Kennedy Space Center Engineering Akademy. Roland is very proud of this distinction.
One of the subjects which were discussed with the NASA engineers was the lightning protection rope of the Space Shuttle launch pads. After the seminar, Roland was given a wonderful poster signed by the engineers he had worked with. In the poster you can see the lightning protection rope illuminated by the starting Space Shuttle. Roland would like to thank all friends at NASA for the nice dedications on the poster.
