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 dangers of space and describe the living and working facilities in their Moon Camp.

We inaugurated our Moon Camp Raichu, the evolution of the famous electric Pokémon Pikachu to symbolize the future and evolution of science on the moon and the function of the base to electricity only.
Because they want to improve science and go further into space. Indeed, lunar science could revolutionize terrestrial science. The moon is the satellite of the earth and thanks to it we can go further than from the earth.
Close to the lunar poles
Because missions have already happened there. We already know the calculations that must be made to land on the moon. There would be space debris that could be used for our mission. Several missions happened at this place
The exterior of our Moon camp will be made entirely of aluminum and graphite that we will have brought in some box of the rocket
The interior will be made of carbon-based materials. This would be entirely done by these materials that resists the cold of space and more over that it is light it allows us to bring several materials of this type. The space for the basement will be made by a piece drill detach on the first shuttle. She will also bring shovels, pickaxes, etc.
We protect astronauts in four ways…
1.radiation: our facilities will withstand radiation from 0 mSv to more than 2500 mSv which will protect astronauts. If there is a problem, the decontamination modules will automatically close with a system that will prevent the problem from recurring.
2.Meteorites: Meteorites often crash into the Moon, so we decided to put the low Earth underground to have less risk of being hit by one of the meteorites present in space.
3. physical health: There will be a Medical Unit on the base, if there is someone who has a minor or serious injury will be treated at that location. A robot will be deployed to operate on a person if needed.
4.mental health: The base will be equipped with a room where astronauts can communicate with loved ones for a short time. The base will have a resemblance to an earthly house.
Part of the water will be brought at the same time as all the materials on the rocket and the other-on-other small rocket. It will be stored in tanks in the engine room and will move in pipes that will be through out the base. The water will be reusable through filters in the pipes connecting one installation to the engine room or one installation to another. We produce our food in small fields that are in some small glass dome scattered in a large dome made of aluminum. These fields are supplied with water through pipes connected to the engine room. We serve several kinds of food, there would be carrots, legumes, salads, tomatoes, and lots of vegetables and grains. Part of the electricity will be produced by turbines in another water tank and the other part will be produced by solar panels installed on the moon. At the beginning of the mission, the air would be supplied withoxygen. Subsequently this oxygen will be produced by the plants that will be planted everywhere in our base. The air will be treated by ventilation systems. This system will be functional if there is someone in the room otherwise the air will be partially treated
We would include intense training with no outside contact. The training will take place in a secure complex so that there will be no human interaction with anyone other than the crew member. There would be several simulations that the astronauts will have to manage by themselves.
