Water on the Moon
Scientists must design and evaluate many ways of extracting water from the lunar permafrost before planning lunar colonies and manned missions using the moon as a base.
In this activity students will construct a solar water collector. Using the collector, students will collect and calculate the amount of water in an area of simulated lunar permafrost. Students will evaluate the pros and cons of using this system on the Moon.
