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.

Camp alterra

In this camp it could be used to live on the moon. It will have several oxygen tanks, they will work with solar and wind energy that will be stored in tanks that will be under the ground so that no porch can damage them. Also open avitations in which you can rest. They will also have a mine to obtain different resources. Open a greenhouse to obtain food. In the restaurant you will be able to eat and drink or leave your work. You will see an ospital where you can cure the avitants. Each visitor will have a job inside the Alterra camp. There is a laboratory where the different types of materials, bacteria, etc. can be invaded. It will be possible to see that there are land and drop platforms so that space ships can come and go.
