The Challenge | Dust Yourself Off

The Apollo missions showed us that lunar dust not only clung to everything and was impossible to fully remove, but it was also dangerous to humans and damaging to spacecraft systems. Your challenge is to develop a way to detect, map, and mitigate lunar dust to reduce the effects on astronauts or spacecraft interior systems.

Another one bites the dust

Our solution proposal is based on the dispersion principal of the solar radiation established by Mie and Raighleigh. Which will help us find the areas that have more moon dust concentration and fix it.
