Moon Camp Pioneers Gallery 2019-2020

In Moon Camp Pioneers each team’s mission is to 3D design a complete Moon Camp using Fusion 360. They also have to explain how they will use local resources, protect astronauts from the dangerous of space and describe the living and working facilities.

Describe your Moon Camp project.

This moon camps is located in a lava tube in the moon, it consist of the main base with a kitchen, bedroom, and a gym, apart from the base, there is a laboratory that is connected by a corridor that in case of emergency it can be closed so anything that happens in the laboratory doesn’t affect the main base. the security measurements of the moon camp are a capsule that prevents from meteorites and keep out the radiation, also if the capsule broke, the base won’t be affected as it is underground. The main electricity source is the solar panels that are connected to the base with a battery to keep the electricity whenever the sunlight doesn’t reach the base. For the water, we will recycle from our own, for example our urine, sweat, or breath, and for the oxygen we will use electrolysis taking some components that has oxygen and separate it to get the oxygen and be able to breathe, and for the food, there will be a greenhouse with some vegetable growing in it, and will be used also to convert the CO2 that the astronaut will generate and convert it into oxygen. To make the astronaut able to contact the earth and tell every discover from the moon, there is a communication tower that connects with the earth, and to do the discovers, there will be some mars rover, but this time, as it is in the moon, moon rovers.

Where do you want to build your Moon Camp?

We want this moon camp located underground in a lava tube, because if it is underground, it can be protected from meteorites, radiation and keep a certain temperature to live.

How do you plan to build your Moon Camp? Describe the techniques and materials you would use.

we plan to build the moon camp using titanium from the rocket, we want to use titanium because its light and we will have to use less fuel to lift of the rocket it is also very strong . and the techniques to build it, as it will be already in a natural cave, we will just put the titanium plate in the walls.

Water
Food
Electricity
Air

the water will be provided by recycling the astronauts waste, such us urine, also, if they are able, the can take the ice in the moon and melt it.

the food will be provided by growing vegetables in the greenhouse, but for the firsts days when the vegetable are still growing, the astronaut will be living by eating food from the earth.

the power resource will be the solar panels, the solar panels will recollect sunlight and transform it into electricity and it will be kept in a battery.

for the air, the astronaut will use electrolysis to take the oxygen from the compounds and when the astronauts exhale the co2, it will be sent to the greenhouse to convert it into oxygen again

How do you plan to build your Moon Camp? Which materials would you use?

The environment on the Moon is very dangerous for the astronauts. Explain how your Moon Camp will protect them.

the moon camp will protect them by using a capsule and the own ground, the capsule and the ground will prevent it from the radiation and meteorites.

Describe a day on the Moon for your Moon Camp astronaut crew.

a normal day in the moon camp will be, a morning exercising in the gym, in the afternoon they will be experimenting, and in the night, they will be doing a check in to look if anything of the moon camp has been destroyed, and if its destroyed, the next day will be only to fox it, and whenever they fix it, back to the normal schedule.
