Today we will know más about the Foundationón Aeron ResearcháUticas, una organizationón non-profit located in Bogotaá, Colombia.
The Foundationón Aeron ResearcháUticas, It is an organizationón without áprofit motive created in 2006 by some engineering studentsíthe aeroáutica in Bogotá Colombia; His espíritu are: unionize renegade researchers in engineering mattersíin general, help us in the private and individual projects of each one.

We have separated ourselves from government entities because we know the “efficient” that these come to be to show no efficiency. “For testing a botón” is what we say when we refer to them. ¿Whaté have to show?

“Life is not just work, you have to leave a good chapter, for the craziness that each one has, for something you do out of obligationón, you are not free, You are free when you spend time of your life on things that motivate you., what do you like, that some may be playing football, other fish, another investigate a moleébutt, the art; what do I know, we are different. but have a cause, what do I know, (and that takes time) she is a philosopheríto of life.” Pepe Mujica
