Ola

all interested students may find important and useful information about this competition from the website http://www.arssdc.org/  or http://www.spaceset.org/p.home.html.
selection process done by the school is slightly different from the usual competition.you will be judged
on your aptitude to be a professional engineer , doctor , scientist , researcher , manager , accountant , architect etc.
i do not feel any preparations are necessary to attempt the 1st round of the selection procedure.
considered to be world's toughest sr. sec team competition , renders a true aerospace environment.
we do require some excellent designers and artists since it is a design competition.
all those who wish to enhance their chances of qualifying into the competition may learn some basics of
designing using softwares like blender , 3ds max or maya. (personally blender would be a good option as
its system req. are basic ) get urself an ebook "blender for dummies" (you can download blender for free !)
http://www.blender.org/download/get-blender/ . you also need to get python for blender so download that as well http://www.python.org/download/
register quickly to space.citizens@gmail.com if you haven't

good luck

ARSSDC selection process

Just as in industry, competing teams submit designs in response to a Request for Proposal (RFP), which describes exactly what the customer wants to see in the design.
Qualifying Competition teams may be of any size (from a few to many dozen). The 12 teams that qualify for the Finalist Competition will be limited to 12 high school students each, with two adult advisors. Teams are advised to select members with diverse experiences and/or interests; successful designs balance structural integrity, operating efficiency, use of computers and robotics, and pleasant living conditions. Prior Competitions have shown that it will also be helpful to have at least one good artist and/or one good writer on your team.
The 12 Finalist teams will be informed by e-mail. The Finalist teams are responsible for arranging their own round trip transportation to Nassau Bay, Texas, near NASA Johnson Space Center. Lodging and meals will be complimentary during the Finalist Competition for each team's twelve students and two advisors.
Competition organizers and sponsoring organizations retain rights to publish or otherwise use any materials prepared in connection with this Competition.

The Competition

This competition takes place in a simulated future year (see the RFP for exact dates). Technological advancements beyond the current state of the art have accrued. The contents of these links describe technologies the judges will accept in your design. Any other technologies assumed in your design must be fully justified (for example, if you plan to use `warp drive', you must explain how it is constructed).
The basic products, vehicles, and structures described for this competition are technically possible within the timeframes indicated. They do, however, represent ambitious technical, economic, and political commitments. Some will never happen, some will. Some are projects that Design Competition participants who become engineers will work on during their careers. The company Northdonning Heedwell, including its product line and history, is based on a composite of real corporations, projected into the future. There is no such organization as the Foundation Society. The described efforts by the Foundation Society to foster commercial space infrastructure development could, however, be accomplished by other existing organizations.
Your proposal will be judged by engineers from the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Orange County (California) Section. They have experience in the aerospace industry and are familiar with the current state of the art, so please base your design on reasonable interpretations of the level of existing technology defined here, the laws of Physics, and common sense.

Day and Night on the Aresam

I realized that there were some flaws in the design that has presently been decided upon. One of these was that the simulation of day and night was close to imperfect. So I rectified those mistakes, and wrote this document with all the details and diagrams about how day and night are reproduced on the Aresam.  I have retained the idea of the conical reflecting mirror, but have modified a sysytem a bit. The only things missing are the dimensions of the mirror which have to be decided in accordance with dimensions of our basic structure. if there are any correction to be done, please inform me.

The Martian Module

I made this document which contains the design and function of the Module to be assembled on Mars.it can be assembled by 2 spacemen in 10 hrs.I calculated that bit.I'll soon be posting the solution to Automation inSolid Waste Management.

Click here to view the document.if there are any changes to be made,please inform me.
