Before you
draw your design for a lunar rover, make sure you
use the steps outlined in Lesson 7, The Design Process. Your problem, as engineer, is to
design a lunar rover that will meet the
requirements for carrying two men on the moon
terrain. Here are two web references that will
give you helpful background information for your
design.
You can also search the NASA web site for additional information. Don't be limited by the actual design of the lunar rover. Use your imagination, but work within the constraints of the problem. When you have completed your design, please share it with us. If you really enjoyed designing your own rover, you may be interested in participating in the annual "Moon Buggy" design contest sponsored by NASA for high school and college students: Email your .cad, .jpg or .gif file to us.
