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


First of all we had a 3D course to know how to create our camp on there one. Then we watched a video in class to see how the astronomers of America landed on there one their approach that we needed. In the video we could see that first they had to send a robot to see where they could land on there one precisely and what they would need in terms of materials to live there. Then we saw how they built their rocket and many other things. At the end of the video we did a little research and started to plan after having collected several questions from the video like “why go to the One? “or “how to build a base on there One? “Is it risky to go to there One? “. After we made a plant on it and we answered the questions with an effective pressure. After that our objective was to plan our plant and our idea-al scale for there the one, we found out that we will need different modules to survive on there the one as for example productions of oxygen of water of Energy and food. To continue we also chose how many rooms we needed on there one and their measure all that we made by drawing on the floor in class to have an ideal visual, and to finish we drew all the rooms on a sheet with the precise measure and the modules we organized then the structure that we want to have and finally we created all that in 3D on tinkercad
