In the future, to enable astronauts to stay on the Moon for long periods of time, new infrastructures must be developed to overcome important challenges. Such challenges include protection from radiation and meteorites, energy production, the extraction and recycling of water, food production and much more. The Moon Camp Challenge invites students to explore the Moon and decode some of the complexities future astronauts may face.

In Moon Camp Discovery each team’s mission is to 3D design only one component of a Moon Camp using Tinkercad. Teams can choose to design a:

– Lunar lander

– Moon Base

– Lunar rover

– Rocket

– Lunar Orbital Space Station

The design should be adapted to the Moon environment and if possible consider the use of local resources, provide protection and/or living and working facilities for the astronauts.

Moon Camp Discovery is a non-competitive mission for beginners. All teams that submit an entry that complies with the guidelines will receive a participation certificate and their project will be shared on the Moon Camp online platform.

Who can participate?

Participation is open worldwide to students aged up to 19 years old. Moon Camp Discovery is recommended for students aged 6 to 14 years old. Participating students must be supported by a teacher, educator or parent.

Mōna

Name of the rocket is Mōna(The word moon can be traced to the word Mōna)an Old English word from medieval times. Mōna shares its origins with the Latin words metri, which means to measure, and mensis, which means month. So, we see that the moon is called the moon because it is used to measure the months. This is a Rocket powered by reignitable Vinci engine fueled by cryogenic liquid oxygen and hydrogen and
will send satellites as well as humans to moon. It has three stages first the solid boosters second the bottom cryogenic stage and third the upper cryogenic stage. It is capable of sending satellites to GTO Orbit(Geostationary Transfer Orbit).We have made the fuel tanks and solid rocket booster fuel. Solid Rocket Booster(SRB) fuel consist of a mix of ammonium perchlorate (68%) and aluminum fuel (18%) and HTPB (14%).

We have edited the design and added crew capsule for human spaceflight to moon
