High-Level Project Summary
Our team has developed a storage system that can capture energy through the wind, that is, wind energy. With that, we thought about the possible weight of the rover that would be supported on Venus, so that the energy provided would be able to supply its needs. The battery is positioned next to the rover, totaling 1232 kg of mass. For the total volume, we will have 400,000cm³ or 400m³. This solves our problem because we were able to create a source of energy extraction that would support our rover, even in the long term, as it is a renewable source for both battery and vehicle operation. This system becomes important so that we can absorb data and information from the Venusian environment.

Detailed Project Description
We used plutonium and nanodiamonds as propellants and as a source of energy for the trip to Venus. Our rover also uses tungsten and steel wheels, capable of withstanding high temperatures, such as those on the Venusian surface. Our system works with the winds of Venus, which bring enough speed to make the blades spin. They are made of . With these turns, the propellers produce energy, bringing it into the batteries, made of gold nanowires coated with an electrolyte gel, incredibly resistant, as the battery can work for more than 200,000 charge cycles (each cycle lasts around 10 hours). They deliver 52,500,000 total Watts over 2 million hours of life. They are made of copper, which sustains the temperature and pressure conditions imposed by the atmosphere of Venus. We also use gear motor systems with a torque that will provide an approximate force of 12,000,000 Newtons, greater than atmospheric pressure.

We used the data about the two missions of NASA to explore Venus: DAVINCI and VERITAS.
Hackathon Journey
It was very complicated, an experience we had never experienced before. We share knowledge with amazing people and we are very happy to have participated. We were also exhausted by the whole event and the whole work process that was developed until we got here, but the moments were wonderful, since the beginning.
