This camp will immerse students in a fascinating intersection of aerospace and civil engineering, the design of extraterrestrial buildings and structures. Using Minecraft, campers will be challenged to design and build a self-sustaining habitat for themselves on the moon. The campers will learn to use the Engineering DesignProcess to work through a simulated version of the challenges of space travel in the relatively familiar setting of Minecraft. They will walk away from this camp with a basic understanding of how potential moon bases could be designed and some of the difficulties presented in space travel.
