Teachers and parents will soon be able to spark their children’s curiosity for science, robotics, and creative thinking. An educational online adventure called “Destination: Mars” will help students develop unique skills, such as 3D printing, programming, and engineering, as well as convince young explorers that learning experience can be a lot of fun, and go beyond traditional degree.
New location, two parallel categories – for students’ and professional teams, tasks inspired by real challenges, rules prepared on the basis of guidelines from projects of space agencies, such as NASA or ESA and the chance to take part in the analog Mars mission on the Arabian Peninsula – all this is waiting for the participants of this one of the most important robotics-space event in Europe.
Teams of more than 300 designers from around the world will compete in the Mars rovers competition, government representatives will present the assumptions of Polish Space Strategy, and the general public will be able to take part in the extraordinary demonstrations and workshops. In the second weekend of September in Podkarpacie the universe will be at your fingertips.
