LEGO Robotics Summer Camp: Mission to Mars – Space Exploration & Engineering

 2026 Summer Camp

🚀 Mission to Mars – Space Exploration & Engineering

Houston, we have a mission.

This week, campers become space engineers on a journey to the Red Planet. Using LEGO robotics, they'll design, build, and program the machines that make Mars exploration possible — from rocket launchers and Mars rovers to robotic arms and communication systems. Every build is a real engineering challenge, and every line of code gets them one step closer to the mission.

The week culminates in the ultimate team challenge: design, build, and present your very own Mars base.

What campers will engineer this week:

• 🚀 Rocket Launchers – Build and test launch mechanisms that use force and angles to hit their targets
• 🤖 Mars Rovers – Program autonomous vehicles to navigate terrain, avoid obstacles, and complete surface missions
• 🦾 Robotic Arms – Engineer mechanical grabbers that pick up and move objects with precision
• 📡 Communication Systems – Build sensor-based systems that detect, respond, and relay information

Campers will develop key STEAM skills as they explore:

• Angles & Turns – Programming precise 90°/180° movements
• Gear Ratios – Exploring the tradeoff between speed and torque
• Distance & Measurement – Using sensors and timing to navigate accurately
• Loops & Sequencing – Learning the fundamentals of automation
• Sensor Responses – Integrating color and motion triggers into their builds
• Teamwork & Problem Solving – Designing, testing, and improving together

Campers are grouped by age and experience to ensure everyone is appropriately challenged while having fun.
