(PRWEB) April 11, 2017 -- Hernon Manufacturing was please to host NASA Rover Challenge team "Spacetroopers" for a day tour of their manufacturing facility and headquarters in Sanford, FL. The team represents the Colegio Santa Terezinha located in São Gonçalo, Brazil and had the distinct honor of being the first Brazilian team to participate in the NASA competition. To maximize the impact of their whirlwind tour of the Southeastern United States the team scheduled additional stops including the tour of Hernon Manufacturing, Inc. where they saw some of the over 5000 adhesives and sealants that Hernon offers and previewed the machine shop where precision dispensing and curing systems are manufactured.
