Colonizing Mars may have once been the realm of science fiction, but today it feels closer to a reality, and perhaps, an inevitability. That doesn’t mean it will be easy! We have to travel at least 55 million km just to get there. Then, we have to safely land, overcome Martian dust storms, survive a lack of liquid water and oxygen, and brave an icy climate to establish our colony. In this camp, students will develop their engineering skills to solve challenges related to travelling to, surviving on, and eventually thriving on Mars.
