Moon Camp Explorers Gallery 2021-2022
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
In our project, we have: a big lab with plants, that grown whit fertile soil that we brought from the Earth; a structure to store water and receive solar energy; three structures where you can find the room, the bathroom, the living room and the kitchen; finally, you have a station where the rockets land and take off. |

Where do you want to build your Moon Camp?
Close to the lunar equator Why did you choose this location?
We choose this location because it has light and small thermal amplitudes, but it isn’t very far from the south pole. How do you plan to build your Mooncamp? Which materials will you use?
To build our moon camp, we could use some materials that already exist on the moon, to build a part of our moon camp. For the other parts of the moon camp, we could bring the materials from the Earth, for example, we could bring the fertile earth and the plants, from the Earth, because those are things we can’t find on the moon.

Describe a day on the Moon for one of your Moon Camp astronauts
We wake up early, in the morning, and we pack our sleeping bags. After that, we go downstairs and go to bathroom. When we’re all ready, we have our breakfast together. After that, we go to the water tank, to check if everything is fine. Then we go to our lab, to water the plants, and check if everything is fine. Then, we go to the kitchen, and have lunch. When we’re done, we go to the station, to do some necessary repairs on our rocket, and we spent some time studying the moon. We want to know more about her properties, and it’s easier to do that, because we are literally living on the moon. After that, we go back to the kitchen and have dinner. Before we go to sleep, we go to the living room, and discuss a little bit about something new we’ve discovered during that day. We usually go to sleep early, so we can have more time of rest, because our days are really tiring. |
