The event has concluded for this year, we will be back in 2025!
The field of Aerospace could not have progressed so far if not for the numerous research papers and design concepts for what the future holds. From sending people to space, to placing satellites in Orbit, to one day making space settlements on Mars maybe. Cosmovate 2024 is the essence of this practice. Participants will be given detailed RFPs (Request-For-Proposal) for technology designs.
Settle-me-this: Herein, the job of the participants will be to propose the design of a space settlement for the near future. This is open to grades 6th-8th (In Junior Category) and grades 9th to 12th (In Senior Category).
The junior category will deal with the fundamental understanding and design of space settlements. The seniors’ RFP will also contain in-depth-research requirements to help them gain a deeper understanding of certain parts of space settlement design.
