Cratering the
Moon ChallengePreliminary Design of
projectile devices by:
Expert response from Jennifer Heldmann:
These are very impressive drawings! Each one has a variation
of a spaceship and/or grenade. Very creative designs with
the spaceships! For your next round of designs, try to think
of an experiment that you could do in your classroom to try and determine the
effects of different angles on the amount of ejecta that gets kicked up during an impact. You'll
have to think of a good type of impactor, a way to measure the
angle, a way to measure the amount of ejecta, and decide on what type of material you want to impact into! Also
when thinking of your designs, always remember safety first!
