 Ten teams of Caltech engineering students designed and built amphibious craft that crawl and swim across Milligan pond at Caltech Tuesday, March 10, 2009.   The amphibious craft clean up the floating debrie consisting of ping pong balls and deposit their cargo on the other side-crawl out and claim their space at the top of the bridge during 25th Annual ME72 Engineering Design Contest.
