Want to make money”easily“? We have what you need! Indeed, NASA has decided to challenge you and If you manage to solve this problem, you can win the sum of 3 million dollars. We’ll explain how to do it.
NASA is calling on you to solve a major space problem
If you’re resourceful, have lots of ideas running through your head and have a passion for space then you’ve come to the right place. Effectively, NASA is trying to find a way to solve a problem that is increasingly impacting space over the years. No, it’s not the problem of poop in space, NASA had already launched a competition for this question in 2016.
The American space agency will embark on new long-term lunar missions. Several explorations will take place in the coming years and new manned space missions mean an increase in human presence. This will necessarily involve an increase in space pollution. So, NASA wants find a way to generate less waste above our heads and also know what to do with those who will have been left behind by the crews of these missions.
This is why NASA launched a competition called LunaRecylce Challenge which aims to respond to these two challenges. This will take place in two stages: the first is to find a solution to a scenario imagined by NASA.
This is staged a one-year mission with technical specifications that participants must take into account in their projects. These latter will be to be submitted to the agency before March 31, 2025 and the winner will be announced in May.
You find the solution to space pollution, 3 million dollars at stake
The second phase of the competition will be ask participants to build on the winning project and propose a functional prototype. For the moment, the details of this phase have not yet been fully revealed by NASA.
Candidates who want to participate in this LunaRecycle Challenge must register online and provide various documents. The key: if you win phase 1 it’s 750,000 dollars but as a whole, between the two phases and the two categoriesPrototype Build, namely building a physical prototype for the space cleaning solution and Digitial Twin, a digital simulation of a recycling solution, there are 3 million dollars up for grabs. SO If you ever have ideas that you want to submit to NASA, don’t hesitate, go for it! As Jean-Claude Dusse, played by the late Michel Blanc, would say: “On a misunderstanding, it can work“.
