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.

Project description


Atmaca Lunar gezgini kamera, 4 teker ve bir direksiyon simidi, bir tutma sapına sahiptir.
Kamera, önündeki nesneleri görmeye yardımcı olur.
Özel bir nesne görürse, tutma kolu bu nesneyi alır. böylece astronota döner ve astronota verir.
Kamera büyük bir cisim görürse, Atmaca Ay Gezgini cismin sağına veya soluna gider.
Dişli yapısı sayesinde tekerlekler pürüzlü yolları rahatlıkla geçebilir.
Direksiyon simidinin manuel ve otomatik kontrolü vardır. Bir Astranaut’a ihtiyaç duymadan hareket edebilir.

 

English translation:

Atmaca Lunar navigator has a camera, 4 wheels and a steering wheel, a handle. The camera helps to see objects in front of it. If it sees a special object, the handle grabs that object. so he returns to the astronaut and gives it to the astronaut. If the camera sees a large object, the Atmaca Moon Traveler goes to the right or left of the object. Thanks to its gear structure, the wheels can easily cross rough roads. The steering wheel has manual and automatic control. It can move without the need for an Astranaut.
