We were able to win the Local azard! Only 2 have won for now in Chile.

Thanks for all the support, we really took a lot of enrgy into this (I edited the video until 2AM...)

After the votes, it's probable that someone will go to the U.S and represent our team and challenge.

This is our save thanks to this solution:

• Hours of astronaut time saved: 3 hours (estimated time that Astronauts take for recovering samples)
• Hours of extravehicular activity (EVA) astronaut time saved: 5 hours. (1 for configuration, 3 for recovers via astronaut rover)
• Percent increase in value per pound of rock/soil leaving the Moon for Earth: 70%
• Mass of rock/soil not returned because its value was determined in-situ: 55KGs (per mission)

We have successfully entered the final round in SpaceApps Chile, we'll update as soon as we can due to the recent militar attacks realized in Santiago

In this Youtube channel we upload the simulation of uor project.

Eeny, Meeny, Miney, Sample!

The challenge that we have chosen is "Eeny, Meeny, Miney, sample!"

Its objectives are to evaluate lunar samples quickly and effectively before or during the mission,and to differentiate samples of potential scientific value from less interesting material.

To achieve this,we design a series of steps.

First step:Before the manned mission, send a satellite to review and analyze the lunar surface on a NASA SLS rocket.

Second step:With the moon already inspected, the area of greatest interest for research is chosen.

Third step:Send Rovers with a manned mission on another SLS rocket so they can take samples from the chosen area. The crew must be made up of 4 human beings, 2 men and 2 women, which in turn must be 2 scientists and 2 pilots.

The Rovers will have a drill, which will also be used to pour liquid metal over the rocks, so that the magnet can then transport them to the ship.

Fourth step :After the Rovers take the samples, they get on the ship where the crew members are waiting for them.

Fifth step:Finally a bioanalysis is performed on the samples, in order to know what they contain.

Sixth step: The lunar specimens are analyzed in greater detail on Earth.

In summary our proposal is to mix the use of satellites with robots to facilitate the task of astronauts and make it faster and more efficient.

Thanks for your attention.
