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.

The space station ALCHRISEN23 is a lunar campaign positioned in the southern part of the moon. In the station we can find different areas to live with the available resources, obtain energy to move around the moon and an area to locate the rocket that will allow the return to Earth.
The base would have a part for research, another for vegetation to produce oxygen and food, a gym so astronauts don’t lose their physical conditions, rooms to sleep and store their suits and their belongings, a trough, a workshop, rockets parts, the communication area and finally the material extraction area.
Our astronaut wants to go to the Moon to study the possibilities of being able to live outside the Earth.
Close to the lunar poles
We would position ourselves in the southern part of the moon, because in the southern part there is consistent sunlight, apart from the fact that there are also huge areas of ice from which we could extract water for crops and trees and to drink. Although it is quite possible that it is not drinkable, having to filter it or on the other side having to drink our recycled urine.
The base should be made of materials which solar radiation does not go through such as lead, although it is quite heavy, and also moon dust could be used to protect ourselves from the sun.

It would be a base that would work until the lunar night, which lasts long enough, comes. In order to solve that problem we would make a storage of energy or we would use helium 3. To produce more rocket fuel to return, we would make it with helium3 or with other materials that are on the moon.
Since it is cheaper to make the fuel. That would be all about our station.
The astronauts will have protective space suits from solar radiation. The different rooms would be made with materials resistant to meteorites, storms and solar radiation. The base should be made of materials which solar radiation does not go through such as lead, although it is quite heavy, and also moon dust could be used to protect ourselves from the sun.
We have designed the rooms in the shape of a dome because it minimizes the risk of a meteorite crash.
In addition, the area where we have positioned the lunar station is where the least number of meteorite impacts are observed.

We would include a training providing lunar-like conditions.
