1. Day 2: Countdown Sequence Begun
Fly me to the moon
Day 2: Countdown Sequence Begun

2. Hook: Pin the Landing Site on the Moon
Where do you think would be the BEST landing site for a mission to the moon?
Task:
Use the dot you were given and “pin” it where you would want to land on the moon.

4. Mars Landing at Gale Crater
The Mars rover, Curiosity, ventured to the red planet and landed at Gale Crater.
Here is why…..

5. Mars INTERACTIVE Panorama
Now is your chance….
Go to the camp weebly and click on the “Mars Interactive Panorama” link
Check out different views of Mars and write 3 observations about the terrain in your camp notebook. (Be ready to share these!!  )

6. “A Picture is Worth 1,000 Words”
Activity #1
Look at the satellite images of the moon.
Make your own observations and record your thoughts in your camp notebook.
What do you think the terrain is like on the moon?
Do you see a difference between the near side and far sides of the moon?
Activity #2
Click on “Google Moon” on the weebly
Explore Google Moon and click on “Visible” and “Elevation” to see different views of the moon’s terrain.

This picture will be printed as a poster and laminated for camp use.
Analyst Comments: Primary landing corridor has ample Iron deposits from historical lava fields; however, not as abundant as the alternate landing corridor. The selection of the primary corridor allows for acceptable resource reconnaissance for extract development without landing the lunar module on an Iron plate.

This picture will be printed as a poster and laminated for camp use.
Analyst Comments: Primary landing corridor has ample Titanium deposits from historical lava fields; however, not as abundant as the alternate landing corridor. The selection of the primary corridor allows for acceptable resource reconnaissance for extract development. Titanium deposits are close to elevated positions, which has landing implications.

12. Pieces and Parts
Task:
As a team, you will visit the 5 stations and learn about the important parts of the Mars rovers.
Station #1: Communications
Station #2: Rover Power
Station #3: Traction Components
Station #4: Tools
Station #5: Eyes
As you explore each part of the Mars rovers, take notes about their design and function/purpose.
You will use this information to help you continue with the design of your lunar rover.
Links will be found on weebly site.

14. Back to the Drawing Board
Today’s Task: “Edible Parts Box”
Revisit your sketch from Day 1
Add/modify your ideas based on the new information you learned today about the parts and function/purpose of the parts of a Mars rover
REMEMBER!!! It must be able to roll….and function on the moon 
