Hong Kong students enjoy thrill of meeting aerospace experts

Hong Kong students seized every available opportunity to get closer to their idols during the five-day visit to the SAR by six of the nation's top aerospace scientists.

They queued up shaking hands with the engineers and spacecraft designers, demanding autographs and taking group photos as the visitors toured local universities and schools giving lectures on their experiences in the nation's space programs. Despite the delegation's short stay in Hong Kong, the students were enlightened and encouraged by the space experts' achievements.
