Moon Camp Explorers Gallery 2020-2021

In Moon Camp Explorers each team’s mission is to 3D design a complete Moon Camp using Tinkercad. They also have to explain how they will use local resources, protect astronauts from the dangerous of space and describe the living and working facilities.

Project description

The moon camp is run by 2 diffrent energy sources: Electric from solar panels and Nuclear from a reactor. There is a luanch and landing pad next to the main base for rocket take offs and landings. There is a medbay a living and sleeping quarter a cafetirea a storage and an electricity generator room inside the main base.Outside there are 3 rovers for expeditions on the moon made for rough and bumpy terrain they run on electric energy and have solar panels on them. Outside there is also an excavator used to dig up places that have usefull matireals or to search for water deep in the earths core. The food is naturaly grown here is the green house and the scraps are used as a short term fuel that we get when we feed the scraps to microbes that generate energy.

Where do you want to build your Moon Camp?

Close to the Lunar Poles

Why did you choose this location?

We choose this location because it is the closest to the sun and will therefore get us the most electric energy.

How do you plan to build your Moon Camp? Which materials would you use?

We would start the construction of the moon camp from the main bases foundation because it gives structuaral support to the rocket landing pad aswell. Then we would build of the main base from titanium,kelvar and the highest grade of steel.  Finally we would use some aluminum parts to give a shape and look to our camp.

Explain how your Moon Camp will provide the astronauts with:
Water
Food
Electricity
Air

water will be recycled so when astrnuats have a bath the same water willl be purifeied and used to drink. Then after that the we would take the water molecuels from the carbon dioxide by pressurising it turning it into its liquid form.

Food will be endlessly generated by 2 main sources chicken and plants. First the plants are fe dto the chicken then the chickens excrete is used to fertilize the plants then we can eat the plants or the chicken beacuase it will be an endless cycle of there growth.

Power comes from 2 main sources:Solar energy- since we are sistuated close to the poles the solar energy from the sun is absorbed very well and we will get solar energy. Nuclear energy- Comes from a nuclear generator we have installed in our main base.

Air will be artificially provided and carbondioxide we breath out will be used by plants to perform photosynthesis and they will give us fresh new oxygen.

Describe a day on the Moon for one of your Moon Camp astronauts

One day will be very calm. First the astronaut will go to the gym room to have a morning work out.Then they will go for a snack in the cafetirea. After that they go to the medical bay for an everyday checkup.Next they go to there labs to do reasearch on there next experiments and tests.Then they go back to the cafe for lunch.After that they go on an outdoor exploration mission on the moon rovers. They come back and then have a good dinner and fall asleep.
