One Energy’s dedication to safety and maintenance does not stop at a certain height! Our wind turbines reach 405 feet tall. And while we can (and do!) inspect turbine towers by climbing on the inside, we inspect turbine blades using drone photography. (The same way the photo below was captured!)

Today’s Wind Study homework question explains how and why we use drones to inspect blades – plus information on the data-storage tool used for the resulting images: SD cards!

This week’s related math problems use storage units like bytes and kilobytes – download the assignment here!
