Curiosity and the Mars Rover

At the last STEM meeting, we split into teams looking at NASA’s Curiosity rover and comparing it with our own. Their rover also uses solar power and is programmed in a similar way to ours. NASA have Engineering and Science teams, whereas ours are categorised as Energy and Engineering but in general, there are lots of similarities with how the project is being completed.

We have seen a few changes in personnel this year and our new teams are listed below:
