Once we have enough astronauts and an orbiting station the goal will be to build a farm on the moon. How will we get there ? What will the moon farm look like ? How will food be returned to Earth ?

Your team of engineers have to build a detailed model of Moon base AusRoo.

• Click on picture 1 to see what scientists think it might look like.
• Click on picture 2 to see what students at Davis Creek School think a base on Mars might look like.

Moon Base AusRoo must contain at least the following components

• A living quarters for the moon farmers.
• A storage area containing the farming equipment.
• An enclosed area of moon crops or animals.
• A rocket base for transporting people and materials back to the earth.

Presentation:

Prepare a 5 minute talk to explain your model to the class.

It must include:

1. the model
2. reasons for your choices
3. participation by all team members
