Stephen Beitashour, a professional soccer player from the San Jose Earthquakes, was asked to demonstrate kicking the ball for his student audience. With the increased globalization of soccer, more young people are playing the sport and developing motor skills to compete effectively. To enhance their skills, students in the United States and Canada recently were given the opportunity to discuss with a NASA scientist the aerodynamics of the newly designed soccer ball. To help student soccer players better understand the movement of the ball, NASA scientists at the Fluid Mechanics Laboratory at NASA’s Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, Calif., recently tested the performance of the Jabulani design, and compared it to the 2006 design. Included in this study was Rabi Mehta who had done previous tests on tennis and cricket balls in wind tunnels.

Dedication of the Clarence A. 'Sy' Syvertson Auditorium On July 15, 2011, Ames officiclly renamed its Main Aduitorium (N201) in memory of former Ames Center Director Clarence 'Sy' Syvertson. Syvertson served as Ames Center Director from 1977 to 1984 and passed away Sept 13, 2010. He began his 35-year career at Ames in 1948 and in addition to being Center Director, he also served as Ames' Director of Astronautics and Deputy Director. Syvertson was instrumental in remodeling the auditorium and it is entirely fitting that it be named in his honor. Seen here from left to right are: Syvertson's wife Joann; Ames Center Director S. Pete Worden ; his daughter Lynn and Jack Boyd, senior advisor to the center director. Mrs. JoAnn Syvertson looks a dedication plaque placed in honor of her husband.
