Background

BrB is a company created in order to take people beyond the limits of the solar system. The goal of the company is to provide excellent customer service within a healthy-family environment, surrounded by activities that can enrich their knowledge about the bodies and events that exist outside our planet.

Our inspiration is to live the unique experiences the universe can show us and share the knowledge we have gathered so far. We believe people have the right to live them by themselves so they can inspire others to get involved in the scientific area.

What it does

BrB provides an easy and intuitive platform to use, where you can choose a variety of accessible and unique packages depending on the adventure you want to undertake and various social networks where customers can observe the different planets they can visit and attractions that our packages offer.

The entire BrB team spent a long time researching and devising ways to explore the galaxy safely without lowering the quality of the experience. It has been a complicated task since each planet and satellite has different characteristics, which sometimes makes it impossible to visit its surface due to its extreme conditions, but that did not prevent us from creating ways to appreciate the other attractions that these celestial bodies can offer us.

For our rocket cruises we use an improved version of the Falcon Heavy, powered by ultrasensitive solar panels for start up, and propulsed by hydrogen-oxygen fuel that creates water vapor which will be used to make the water for tripulaton and tourists, also the cabins negate the g-force from the launch creating a reaction force so everyone can enjoy this experience.

NASA Resources

For the elaboration of our marketing strategy, we used NASA's database to collect important information from each of the planets, planetoids, among others.

The information gathered helped us create attractive packages for our clients.

The resources used are ordered according to their use in our marketing strategy.

Information about the planets, its size, surface description, atmosphere, interesting attractions of them, etc.

Space Apps Offers

To elaborate this project it is necessary to know the current position of the planets in relation to our planet. The translation of each planet is different, so the trip we are currently offering will not always be the same. Each year the planet’s position changes so an algorithm that simulates the movements of our solar system is essential to establish a specific route.

Due to the short period of time we had to create the project, we were unable to create our own algorithm, that’s why we choose to use a software developed by INOVE, s.r.o. The software simulates our solar system and nearby stars indicating their current position and future possibilities. With this tool we will be able to show our clients what planets the packages will be covering and how long will the journey take.You can find the service with the name of “Solar System Scope” in both apple and google services.

Future Plans

Future plans never end. Constantly innovating is a challenge for big companies, especially for us who will always try to have a new service for customers. This avoids having a repetitive experience that can end up being boring and even with obsolete technology.

The first step of the company is to create an algorithm similar to “Solar System Scope” for the company usage. Developing our own algorithm will facilitate the elaboration of the packages so clients can book their trip with time and anticipation. Costs will be reduced and time will be saved.

Another idea is to link our project with other participants inside the “Fly-Wireless challenge”. As we know, weight is an essential factor. The energy to lift an object depends on its weight.This will benefit the whole project by reducing the total weight and the amount of fuel/energy used throughout the journey.

Space journeys will not be short. The activities our passengers during the trip have to be entertaining to keep our passengers happy and satisfied. One of the many activities we plan to offer consists of a simulation. In some planets like Jupiter or Saturn (Gas Giants) landing possibilities are practically nule and even in some planets in the Kuiper belt were below the surface an ocean can be found (theoretically). This type of simulation not only enriches people's knowledge but also makes them have a much more vivid and practical experience. This way passengers will not be curious to know what can they find in the planet, they will live and see it with their own eyes.

Future plans may come in the future, we expect to keep working on our short-term ideas to have the capabilities so that we can offer the best service possible in the future.

Built With

For our web page we used a variety of programming languages to optimize the design, and for it to be the most presentable, the languages we used are PHP, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. This helped us to create our website to the fullest.

The hardware we used were computers to design the website.

Try it out

In order for our clients to be able to see what BrB offers, a website was created. You can book in a simple and fast way the next trip through space.

You can try it yourself through: brbtravel.com.mx or https://borderless-sentry.000webhostapp.com/

Also, we thought about those people that are connected through social media. BrB has an instagram account where you can see the description about each planet and activities so you can decide which one is of your preference: https://www.instagram.com/brb.space/?hl=es-la
