22-10-2015 - Aurora - Supporting the 2015 Bridgestone World Solar Challenge and glimpse at our future

Aurora Team Member Darren Trafford and the Channel 7 Weather TeamFollowing what had been a difficult couple of years for Aurora, which left us unable to field a competitive entry into this year's Bridgestone World Solar Challenge for a variety of reasons, Aurora has elected instead to deploy our resources to assist in running this year’s event.

We have team members embedded in BWSC Mission Control, acting as guides for media along the event route, assisting event officials and scrutineers over the past few days, and will be a part of the BWSC Schools Program on Friday - with Aurora Evolution on display for students to view and team members to answer any questions.

In the background Aurora has also been developing our own plans for our future, and have some exciting and major news to announce over coming weeks that will help secure the team's future for the next 10 years.

While disappointed that we aren't competing this year we are glad that we've been able to contribute to this year's Bridgestone World Solar Challenge, and wish all the teams in the event the very best of luck.
