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.

Team: Moon Camp G4

Project description

The Moon camp has a kitchen. The kitchen has one table and four chairs.
There are four beds in the bedroom. The bathroom has one wc and shower. The Moon Camp has a garage. There is a dinning room. It has one table and four chairs.
The Moon camp has a greenhouse with plants. The gym has two static bikes and a running machine. The Moon Camp has one laboratoy.

We want to investigate the rocks, the temperature, the possibility of life… We will go with a rocket. It will have 3 modules with all the material. Them will be connected to the rocket. We will do 2 trips. The first one with a small rocket with robots (they will make the hole, search a good area to build the camp, take measurements…). After this, we will send the other larger rocket with people inside and the modules next to it. The Moon Camp will be set up by robots. It will be a camp for 4 people.
Our camp would have the laboratory and the greenhouse on the surface and the rest would be underground.
To enter and exit you will have a lock.

Where do you want to build your Moon Camp?

Close to the Lunar Equator

Why did you choose this location?

Between mar Nubium and Serenitatis because the temperature of the Moon isn’t too hot and it isn’t too cold.

Water
Food
Electricity
Air

We will take ice from the poles. With a transport prepared for the Moon we would go to the poles.

We would take the food out of the greenhouse. The first few days we would bring food from Earth.

From the Sun with solar panels.

We will get oxygen from the water.

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

With a 3D printer wiche uses lunar dust and some aluminum from the rocket. The walls will be airtight. The walls would have expanded polyestyrene to insulate.

The Moon environment is very dangerous for the astronauts. Explain how your Moon Camp will protect them.

We will protect ourselves underground from radiation and meteorites. Moreover, we will build a cover to protect the outside roof from meteorites. 

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

He gets up at 7AM, then takes a shower. After this, he has breakfast.
Then he will work:
Take samples of the Moon’s material and research it in the laboratory.
Look for water.
Take care of the greenhouse.
Maintenance of the camp (plants, vehicle…)
As the camp is for 4 people, 2 astronauts will prepare the lunch at 12.30 and have lunch at 1.00.
Then take a 30 minutes break and then 2 hours of exercise.
After this, he will work until 20.00. Two astronauts will prepare the dinner.
At 20.30 he start dinner and at 21.00 he go to sleep.
