Challenge Team Abstract

Team Number: 064 School Name: Ramah High School Area of Science: Astrophysics Project Title: Stellar Trajectory

We will study planetary orbit of Mars. We will discover the trajectory, speed, angle and any other data necessary to send a ship or satellite to Mars. We are already aware of a problem with the atmosphere creating problems with the sling-shot scenario. We hope to calculate a solution to these problems which will allow a satellite to successfully complete it's mission.
