Design Challenge: Welcome to Mars!


This week we begin a design challenge to give you all some basic experience in solving problems through design.  Usually we schedule time to go through the entire process of coming up with the most appropriate solution or product after much time spent researching, planning and building.  For this challenge, a quick start should get us all up and moving.

The Challenge is set and some of the requirements have been shared.  In your handout, you've been tasked with completing the first 4 sections of your design challenge handout on your own before coming to our next class.  You should have a fairly clear idea of what you don't know and what you'll need to know!

For those of you interested in learning more about how the Mars Rover Curiosity was able to successfully land on the planet, you can check out the following video on Youtube:
