Mars is one of the most fascinating destinations in space exploration.
But sending people to Mars would require solving enormous engineering and scientific challenges.
Astronauts would need shelter, food, water, oxygen, communications, energy, transportation, medical support, and protection from the space environment.
Building a Mars Habitat
Engineers could investigate ways to use local materials and advanced manufacturing technologies to support future exploration.
Mars STEM Challenge
Design a Mars settlement for 20 people.
Your plan should include:
- Housing
- Food
- Water
- Energy
- Transportation
- Communications
- Scientific research
Question: What would humans need to survive far away from Earth?
