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


 Everything is possible for us, if we want. We know it will not be easy for us, but we do not think that the satisfaction of success will be immense. We managed to learn everything on Earth. We know a lot to do and we have discovered that we have superpowers.
 We have made a transparent house where there is oxygen and you can see the boundless Universe. 
I made a rover that inspects the moon and a tower that receives signals from Earth and 
signals the rover to travel there. I made a water that the rover found by 
researching and digging the soil. We have a huge telescope with which we can look at the 
stars up close and from where we cannot look at our friends on Earth. He expects us to bring 
him all kinds of goodies from the Moon… I hope that we will see ours become a reality and that 
we can travel and live safely on the Moon.
