Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC) is conducting a ‘Mars Habitat Design Competition’ for the college students of Kerala in connection with World Space Week celebrations from October 4 to 10.
Participants are required to submit original design of Martian Habitat conceived by them. They should be creative and realistic considering the Martial atmosphere and the current maturity level of technology.
The VSSC will post competition guidelines and entry form at its website < >www.vssc.gov.in > in a few days. The last date for uploading entries is September 27. The short-listed designers will be invited to present the design during the Space Week celebrations at VSSC.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the first human spaceflight. So, ‘50 years of human spaceflight’ has been chosen as the theme for this year’s celebrations.
