Space Design Competition 2015

Congratulations! Again Nonsuch not only achieved the National Finals of the Space Design Competition this year, but two students will now be part of the team representing the UK at the International Final at the Kennedy Space Centre this summer.

Trisha and Simran Y13 were part of the winning team at the national finals of the UK Space Design Competition held recently at Imperial College London. They will be part of a group of 12 representing the UK in the International Space Settlement Design Competition in July in Florida, USA.

For the national finals, teams competed to design and present a fully functional space settlement for 8000 inhabitants which would orbit Mars and Earth. Trisha was elected President of the team, Eunmi was Director of Structural Engineering and Simran was Director of Human Engineering. An extremely stressful 24 hours fuelled by caffeine and chocolate produced the successful results. A stellar achievement, well done!
