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.

Hi, I´m Lucas, from 3º ESO G in the high school “IES Cristobal de Monroy”.

First, i want to say thanks to the program “MOON CAMP DISCOVERY” for the opportunity they give to me to use the program for this project.

This project that i´m doing in the high school is about the development of an element to reach the moon for the European Space Agency, i decided to make a prototype of rocket divided by different segments ( the biggest part of the rocket is for reach the moon and the smallest part is the one that is going to land on the moon, and then, go back to the earth ), the only part of the rocket that is going to go back to the earth impulsed by the others modules of the rocket is the smallest part on the top of it ( the module of the rocket where the passengers are ).

That´s all of the description of my project, bye !
