The Challenge | The Trans-Neptunian Spaceway

Like the Trans-Siberian Railroad linked remote parts of Asia to the West, the Trans-Neptunian Spaceway (TNS) takes tourists and entrepreneurs to the newly accessible region of our solar system beyond Neptune. Your challenge is to develop marketing materials and/or tools for the Trans-Neptunian Spaceway!

TNS Explorers

We will provide a humanized journey experience beyond Neptune orbit where passengers can explore the TNOs (Trans-Neptunian Objects)

Interestelar Whey

Background:

The past and current NASA probe missions provide a big quantity of high-quality of information about the route and the TNOs itself. We used NASA's database for research to understand the obstacles and the attractions of each dwarf planet proposed to be visited.

We also made a survey with our personal contacts, who shared their biggest concern about the TNS trip. The results were used to preview the on-board resources of spacecraft.

Concerning some technical aspects, such as communication, propulsion, health implications, hygiene, we showed that this kind of journey will be feasible, considering the current and near future technologies.

Challenges:

The main challenge faced was to find scientific bases to future technologies that may be available in 2045 in the short time that we had.
