Moon Camp Challenge Winning Projects
The European Space Agency, Airbus Foundation and Autodesk are delighted to announce the winning projects of the Moon Camp Challenge 2021-2022.
A record number of students took on the challenge to 3D design an innovative and futuristic Moon Camp to host future space explorers. The fourth edition of the Moon Camp Challenge involved the participation of 5649 pupils from 53 countries worldwide.
This year’s Moon Camp jury, a panel of ESA, Airbus Foundation and Autodesk experts in lunar exploration, 3D design, and space technology, were blown away by the impressive quality of the student’s projects. Get inspired with the winning team’s projects!

About Moon Camp Challenge
Moon Camp is an education project run in collaboration between ESA and the Airbus Foundation, in partnership with Autodesk. It uses innovative learning technologies to challenge students to design their own Moon settlement with a 3D modelling tool (Tinkercad or Fusion 360). It features preparatory classroom activities that focus on learning by-design and science experimentation.
Become a Moon explorer
Teams first have to develop a number of interdisciplinary experiments to explore the extreme environment of space and understand how astronauts could live on the Moon. Then they have to design their Moon Camp, which should be adapted to the Moon environment, consider the use of local resources and provide protection and living and working facilities for the astronauts.
Moon Camp is divided in three separate categories featuring different levels of complexity: Moon Camp Discovery, Moon Camp Explorers and Moon Camp Pioneers.
Be creative and start designing your own Moon Camp now!
Moon Camp Discovery
Teams design one component of the Moon Camp using Tinkercad. Once they upload their design, they will receive a Moon Camp participation certificate.
Complexity level: beginners
Tool: Tinkercad
Age range: up to 19 years old, but recommended 6 to 14 years old
Registrations: open from 15 September 2021 to 21 April 2022
Moon Camp Explorers
Using Tinkercad, teams design the complete Moon Camp and submit their report to an expert jury. Participating teams will compete for the Moon Camp Explorers Prize for best project.
Complexity level: intermediate
Tool: Tinkercad
Age range: up to (and including) 14 years old
Registrations: open from 15 September 2021 to 21 April 2022
Moon Camp Pioneers
Using Fusion 360, teams design the complete Moon Camp and submit their report to an expert jury. Participating teams will compete for the Moon Camp Pioneers Prize for best project.
Complexity level: advanced
Tool: Fusion 360
Age range: 15 up to (and including) 19 years old
Registrations: open from 15 September 2021 to 21 April 2022
