NASA Engineering Design Challenge: Gaining Traction on Mars
0 learners earned this badge
Students will work in engineering design teams to create and test various wheel designs and materials on a standard test vehicle to determine which are most effective on a simulated Martian surface. To understand how the test vehicle operates, students will explore the inner-workings that make-up the rover through four lead-up investigations.
