Description
Ready your courageous robots for a mission to the moon, Mars, or beyond! With
this engineering kit, you can build a remote-controlled model of a robotic
Rover resembling the ones used to explore Mars. Deploy your Mars rover in the
backyard or sandbox and use the remote control unit to survey the uncharted
terrain! The remote can control up to three motors, which move the Rover back
and forth, turn the wheels to steer the Rover, and control the robotic arm to
pick up extraterrestrial specimens like small rocks. This one-piece
construction set includes instructions to build not only the robot Rover, but
nine additional space-themed models as well, including: a lunar Rover, rocket
launcher car, space shuttle with opening and closing cargo bay doors, robotic
space shuttle payload arm, moon lander, wacky Astronaut, satellite, Mars
station, and cross-wing flyer. Kids will be inspired to learn various STEM
skills through these fun, hands-on construction projects that bridge two
captivating interest areas: robots and outer space. A full-color, 64-page
step-by-step illustrated manual helps kids assemble all of the models and
teaches them about real-world examples of the outer space robots, vehicles and
devices They are creating. Read about the various technical features of the
Mars curiosity Rover. Learn about the history of Mars exploration, robotics in
satellites, deep-space exploration, and the robots in popular space-related
science fiction. This kit is perfect for every kid who is fascinated by the
prospects of being an astronaut, colonizing the Moon, or being the first human
to land on Mars. – a parents’ Choice Gold award winner. ngss correlations:
