1. Lunar Lander Project Patrick Thurston and David Cobler

2. Problem Design and build Lunar Landing gear for a small cube-satellite. Design and build latching device to hold the lunar Lander section to the main body. Design and build a testing apparatus for the landing gear.

3. Solution Landing gear will be designed to deploy once with no ability to retract. Cube-satellite latch will be designed to release once with no ability to retract. Testing apparatus will be designed to trigger the release and retract the landing gear repeatedly. Testing apparatus for the latch will be designed to release and retract repeatedly.

4. Technical Details Both the landing gear and the latch will be made of lightweight composites and alloys. Landing gear will be hinged and spring loaded. Testing apparatus will be able to run autonomously.

5. Budget Final details and distribution of funds have not been allocated.
