DAARE Conquerors’ lunar base Project

About Team: I am Arjun Sankar studying 6th grade in UAE.
I am Dhivyashree loganathan studying 6th grade in Indian School sohar from Oman.
I am rihin fathima studying in 5th grade from UAE.
I am Abdul rafan studying in 3rd grade from UAE.

 
About project: This is DAARE Conquerors’ lunar base. This base is spread across 5 acre land on the moon. This is built for 2 astronauts and can be extended in the future. It has all the facilities for the astronauts for their regular operations in moon. It is located near the lunar pole. Parts of the lunar base: Rocket port and a launch pad: for transporting the samples from the Moon to the Earth. Living quarters: for astronauts to rest Water transporter: From the human waste we obtain the manure and also purify the waste water into oxygen & drinking water. Farming plot: for growing plants, that supply food to astronauts. The Astronauts are supplied with fishes & chickens to experiment on breeding, as they can act as source of food. A specific satellite is deployed for ensuring uninterrupted observation of base & to establish communication with ground station on the Earth. Also there is a rover, a research laboratory & a space observatory.

Where do you want to build your Moon Camp?

Close to the Lunar Poles

Why did you choose this location?

The lunar poles have easy access to water-ice and also the temperature variation is limited here. Water is the primary need for humans to survive. Therefore, we have water extractor station here which will convert the frozen water to liquid state. Also this station will purify the water and add necessary minerals for drinking, for plants and for fishery. The almost constant temperature will provide the liberty to manage the thermal control for the entire settlement.

How do you plan to build your Moon Camp? Which materials would you use?

The builds are made up of aluminum outside and titanium or high grade steel on the inside. Due to no atmosphere on the moon small meteors pose a big threat to the camp, therefore there will be a layer of Kevlar on every building to stop these small meteorites. Plus the builds have as little sharp corners as possible because those are weak spots and may crack due to the pressure difference between the interior and the exterior atmosphere. The buildings have a heat shield to balance the temperature change of the day and night on the moon.

Lunar lava tubes

Why did you choose this location?

The Lunar lava tubes lies on the boundaries between lunar mares and highland region. This would give access to highlands suitable for communication. Basaltic lands can be used as landing sites as they are flat and are rich in minerals and metals which can be used for setting up the camp. We would look for a lava tube with a diameter of 300 meters to set up our astronaut quarters. Also the temperature here is -20°C and care is taken to provide thermal protection to the astronauts. The lava tubes protect the crew from cosmic radiation, solar radiation and meteorites.
