The HUNCH mission empowers and inspires high school students to learn 21st-century skills and particpate in the design and fabrication of real-world tools for NASA.

Working in microgravity creates new challenges, even for simple tasks. Next to a floating Hopkins is a HUNCH Tape Dispenser specialized for operations in microgravity. This tape dispenser, developed by high school students through the NASA HUNCH (High Schools United with NASA to Create Hardware) program, requires only one hand to cut pieces of tap. This improves crew efficiency and addresses human factors that must be considered when working in the microgravity environment.

jsc2012e030007 (2-23-2012) --- The High Definition Earth Viewing (HDEV) development team. The HDEV experiment places four commercially available HD cameras on the exterior of the space station and uses them to stream live video of Earth for viewing online. The cameras are enclosed in a temperature specific housing and are exposed to the harsh radiation of space. Analysis of the effect of space on the video quality, over the time HDEV is operational, may help engineers decide which cameras are the best types to use on future missions. High school students helped design some of the cameras' components, through the High Schools United with NASA to Create Hardware (HUNCH) program, and student teams operate the experiment.

jsc2020e045054 (8/19/2020) --- Preflight bench review imagery of the High school students United with NASA to Create Hardware (HUNCH) Tape Dispenser (HUNCH Tape Dispenser). The dispenser enables one-handed operation for crew members. Crew members regularly use tape for mundane and critical tasks, but the tape must be cut with scissors, requiring two hands. The HUNCH Tape Dispenser is expected to improve efficiency of operations and scientific research on the space station.

iss039e019134 (5/7/2014) - View of the High Definition Earth Viewing (HDEV) flight assembly installed on the exterior of the Columbus European Laboratory module. The High Definition Earth Viewing (HDEV) experiment places four commercially available HD cameras on the exterior of the space station and uses them to stream live video of Earth for viewing online. The cameras are enclosed in a temperature specific housing and are exposed to the harsh radiation of space. Analysis of the effect of space on the video quality, over the time HDEV is operational, may help engineers decide which cameras are the best types to use on future missions. High school students helped design some of the cameras' components, through the High Schools United with NASA to Create Hardware (HUNCH) program, and student teams operate the experiment.

jsc2023e046376 (12/12/2019) --- The Far-Field Diagnostic (FFD) hardware for Spacecraft Fire Experiment-VI (Saffire-VI) is pictured aboard Cygnus before launch. This package contains the Smoke Eater and CO scrubbers, a prototype Combustion Product Monitor to be used on Orion, particulate sensors, and sensors for CO, CO2, and oxygen gases. The containers for the FFD were fabricated by HUNCH (High school students United with NASA to Create Hardware). Their signatures are shown on the side of the FFD. The Saffire series helps researchers to understand realistic fire spread scenarios on spacecraft and generate advanced protective equipment.

VINCENT VIDAURRI, CENTER, A TECHNICAL SPECIALIST WITH TELEDYNE BROWN ENGINEERING SUPPORTING MISSION OPERATIONS AT THE MARSHALL SPACE FLIGHT CENTER, PROVIDES DETAILS ABOUT A MOCK-UP OF THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION SCIENCE LAB TO A GROUP OF AREA TEACHERS AS PART OF "BACK-2-SCHOOL DAY." TEAM REDSTONE -- WHICH INCLUDES THE MARSHALL SPACE FLIGHT CENTER AND U.S. ARMY ORGANIZATIONS ON REDSTONE ARSENAL -- INVITED 50 TEACHERS TO TOUR REDSTONE ARSENAL AUG. 15, GIVING THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN OF AND SEE RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO THEM AND THEIR STUDENTS. THE TOUR FOCUSED ON SITES AVAILABLE FOR FIELD TRIPS FOR STUDENTS STUDYING MATH, SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND ENGINEERING. STOPS INCLUDED MARSHALL'S PAYLOAD OPERATIONS INTEGRATION CENTER AND THE HIGH SCHOOLS UNITED WITH NASA TO CREATE HARDWARE LAB, OR HUNCH, BOTH LOCATED IN BUILDING 4663. THE PROGRAM GIVES HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS THE CHANCE TO WORK WITH NASA ENGINEERS TO DESIGN AND BUILD HARDWARE FOR USE ON THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION. THE TEACHERS ALSO VISITED THE ARMY AVIATION & MISSILE RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT & ENGINEERING CENTER AND THE REDSTONE TEST CENTER
