In reading Hitchhiker's Guide, students discussed the meaning of life, the universe, and everything, through Adams's portrayals of artificial intelligence, futuristic technological devices, and conceptualizing of space travel. Dr. Billy Barott, an electrical engineering professor specializing in radio astronomy, guest lectured on the feasibility of Adams's wildest claims.
Students developed pages on different types of computer technologies, robotics, and artificial intelligence.
William Doubleday Potts, examined the AI Marvin, and whether or not it exhibits any of the signs of modern intelligence as defined by present day research.
Tyler Flowers, explored how artificial intelligence as used by Adams could give a dog the ability to speak.
Kirk Haun, researched artificial intelligence in the novel, other works of science fiction, and compared them to real life.
These students researched spacecraft and other issues related to interstellar travel.
Raymond Diaz, researched methods of interstellar space travel in science fiction.
Logan Dietrich, didn't panic while exploring teleportation, and how it relates to the infinite improbability drive used by the Heart of Gold.
Taylor Guevarez, compared the Heart of Gold to space craft and propulsion methods being developed today.
Jazmyne Lones, analyzed the feasibility of the space technology found in the novel.
Micheal Nix, examined space travel in Hitchhiker's Guide, Star Trek, and the real world.
Hyun Park, analyzed whether or not interstellar space travel is possible.
Jin Park, researched interstellar travel by looking at a spacecraft already on it's way; Voyager I.
Jonathan Seiler, compared faster than light travel found in science fiction to theoretical methods found in reality.
In these pages, students explored the nature of the universe, systems of civilization building, and the potential for world destruction.
Teslin Balogun, studied the nature of reality, and the meaning of life.
Jonathan Soodkeo, explored the search for extraterrestrial life, and investigated whether humans are the only intelligent beings out there, or not.
Cody Wilson, researched the philisophical background of the novel, and the how simulations are different from reality.
In these pages, students surveyed a variety of futuristic technological devices used in science fiction.
Max Anderson, compared the babel fish and other translation devices to their real world counterparts.
Chris Paxton, explored Brain Computer Interface, and how computers are linked with the human mind throughout science fiction and in reality.
Jack Strange, researched the mathematics behind the infinite improbability drive.
These pages look at humans, animals, intelligence, and how they can all be so odd when in a Douglas Adams novel.
Leslie Gallardo, explored the nature of intelligence found in the living things on the planet Earth.
