Global Nominee

Man on Mars!

High-Level Project Summary

We have proposed an exciting game named “Man on Mars!” which gives the users an experience of the voyage to Mars and back to Earth by creating a simulating game through an avatar that travels to Mars and back to earth that describes what challenges and risks are involved in a human spaceflight. Our game provides actual challenges faced during the human spaceflight and physically accurate simulation of a Martian rover.

The Trail to Mars: Can You Keep Your Crew Alive

Long-distance space travel comes with a multitude of health risks, but it is difficult to imagine the combined effects of these risks, especially for those who are not fluent in NASA jargon. Your challenge is to create an educational game for middle schoolers (approx. ages 10-14) that focuses on keeping an avatar alive and healthy during a voyage from Earth to Mars and back, and that identifies the most difficult challenges and the biggest risks involved in human spaceflight.
