The Innovation Challenge: Replenish Kit

**Restock kit for consumable items found in the “The Innovation Challenge Activity”

In this activity, students will put their understanding of engineering design practices to the test as they design a “space condo.” Students will work in teams to design a dwelling to protect residents from the harsh conditions on Mars, particularly the extremely low atmospheric pressure. With limits on the types of materials and designs that may be used, students will have to exercise their creativity and work collaboratively at each stage of the project.
