Moon Camp Explorers Gallery 2019-2020
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 this moon camp astronauts/cosmonauts will: do science, invent new tehnologies, collect regolith which will be transported to the Earth for helium 3, and other materials found in regolith. This moon cam wil also be a hub for future misions to the Mars, and beyond. |

Where do you want to build your Moon Camp?
Close to the Lunar Poles Why did you choose this location?
We choose lunar poles because
|
|||
Water
|
Food
|
Electricity
|
Air
|
Water is being melted and purified from water ice. We can also use collected water as a rocket fuel sourse. |
We are growing food on the IMS inn the special modules. |
We are using solar panels to get electricity. |
We get oxygen from regolith which is collected by RHR (regolith harvester rover). |
How do you plan to build your Moon Camp? Which materials would you use?
We plan to build pressurized modules on earth, transport them in LEO (low Earth orbit), when all modules are docked, motors stil attached on the station will preform TLI. When the station is in lunar orbit motors (attached on the station) will preform deorbit burn. When IMS is on the targeted location solar panels and battery will launched. When solar panels are on the lunar surface near the IMS, rover will connect solar panels to the battery. After that multiple rovers dig out the area for the rocket silo, it will be launched whit satelite dishes and landing pads. |

The Moon environment is very dangerous for the astronauts. Explain how your Moon Camp will protect them.
From vacum of space astronauts are in special pressurized modules which don’t let air leave from the pressurized part. |

Describe a day on the Moon for one of your Moon Camp astronauts
Astronauts/cosmonauts will wake up at 6 am in CET(London time) time zone. When they brush their teeth they go on a conference whit mission control in MMCC. After that they have brakefast and then they do experiments and sometimes moonwalks. After they have done their job astronauts/cosmonauts have free time to play board games, enyoy the wiev of the beautiful planet Earth or workout. Then they have dinner, and when they are full they prepare for the next day, have another conference whit mission control, and then they go to sleep. |
