Design a space settlement! Space settlements are permanent communities in orbit, as opposed to being on the moon or other planets. Designing a space settlement involves physics, mathematics, space science, environmental science and many other disciplines.
The NASA Space Settlement Design Contest is intended for students in grades 6-12, although younger students may enter. Individual or teams from anywhere in the world may enter. Grade levels are judged separately, except for the grand prize. All participants will receive a certificate.
Submissions must be received by March 15, 2013.
For more information about the NASA Space Settlement Design Contest, visit http://settlement.arc.nasa.gov/Contest/.
If you have any questions about the contest, please email Al Globus at aglobus@mail.arc.nasa.gov.

Unfortunately, the competition is designed for students. If you would like to participate in some way, I strongly encourage you to contact a local school and offer your assistance to a student team. You could offer invaluable mentorship to students entering the competition.
