Synopsis and Rules of the Storm Front Challenge

  • Chapter
LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT

Abstract

The Mars Base Gamma: Storm Front challenge will put your robot-building skills to the test as you attempt to rescue a damaged Lander Mark VII. The lander has fallen into a small crater and sustained damage that is preventing it from exiting the crater on its own power. Your job will be to build and program a rescue robot that can assist the lander in exiting the crater and retrieve as many of the damaged components as possible. An additional component to the challenge will be to try and retrieve the lander’s rock samples that were lost in the storm.
