  1. Life on Other Planets: Task: Open up google docs and make a powerpoint First page: Set up in Question/Problem, Research, Hypothesis, Test, Analysis of Data, and Conclusion format Your mission’s problem: You are in charge of NASA’s Astrobiology

  2. Division You must pick a planet or moon in the solar system you believe may have or could support life, and find evidence to support your claim In the RESEARCH section, you should list any 2 facts you choose to use from the Astronomy AND Seasons’ Units

  3. Include also in the RESEARCH section the NASA.gov (astrobiology AND Mars Rovers) website Your hypothesis should be the planet your mission group believes supports life, with a justifying explanation

  4. 4. Include the following information about your planet: Distance from sun Projected surface temperature Length of rotation and revolution 5. Define WHAT the chemical materials are that make up life (the materials you must find on the planet to indicate possible life)

  5. 6. Your group has the following jobs: A) Design and build a space vehicle which will transport a probe from Earth to the planet you select. B) Design and build a landing device for the surface of the planet / moon you select C) Design and build a rover (like the Mars’ rovers)

  6. Rocket Use https://www.nasa.gov/audience/foreducators/rocketry/home/rockets_stack_up_nf.html#11 Design and build a rocket that is traveling to either the moon or Mars. Include length, width, height, and mass of model. Your objective is to get your rocket to reach the greatest altitude.

  7. Using the website, create scale measurements of the spacecraft

  8. Landing Device Create a lander for astronauts. Spacecraft travel at up to 29,000 km/hr (18,000 miles/hr), so landing astronauts safely is important. Given: Dimensions of actual Lunar Module built by NASA:

  9. Height: 6.9 meters Diameter: 9.4 meters Mass: 14,741.752 kilograms (fully loaded with propellant) See actual specs at https://history.nasa.gov/alsj/CSM08_LM_&_SLA_Overview_pp61-68.pdf

  10. 3. Using the listed measurements, make your lander to scale 4. Your lander must be able to successfully land astronauts and cargo (Hard Boiled Eggs) without breaking (landing on a simulated surface).

  11. Rover Using materials you should build an operating Rover (one that moves on its own power preferably) The Rover should be able to TEST for the LIFE CHEMICALS your mission group has designated Include a written blueprint which shows heights and widths to scale

  12. Materials: K’nex Straws Cardboard Rocket Kits Any materials pre-approved by instructor for you to bring into school

  13. What your group must have completed for a grade 1. Scientific Method Google Powerpoint 2. Completed Space Craft with a blueprint 3. Completed Lander with a blueprint 4. Completed Rover with a blueprint
