NASART

High-Level Project Summary

Our challenge is to creatively develop a method of art in order to explain the design, process, or scientific results from a NASA or partner space agency research project to our audience, develop an approach that combines science, technology, engineering, the arts, and math. That is why we have named our project “NASART” combining art with science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Our main goal was to develop a way of explaining the “Apollo 11” and the end of the “Apollo 10” event in the means of art. In order to achieve this, we have sketched the important moments from the “Apollo 11” electronically, by using “Ipad Air 2’s” and electronic pencils.

Detailed Project Description

Art has always been one of the most important and efficient ways of teaching and learning. And that is why we have used the way of art as a way of teaching for the “Apollo 11” event. Art has had a very important role on the development of spacecrafts. For an instance, every manmade machine starts from a sketch which is the basis of all art. Furthermore, art converts spacecrafts complexity to creativity. Kids draw spacecrafts in ways you can’t even begin to imagine. And our main goal has been to inspire those kids into turning STEM into STEAM. As for this call, we’ve made this comic serie of 9 sketches. And our sketches are: 


Photo 1, “From the Eternal Depth” 

After the Apollo 10 the “Charlie Brown” command module has splashed the water after travelling in 40.000 km/h (Which is the fastest speed human have ever travelled). And after the splash, they’ve brought the astronauts safely to their homes. 


Photo 2, “An Inspiring speech” 

After the “Apollo 10” mission, John F. Kennedy (The Former President of the USA) sat down and had an interview with the media and said, “We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.” Which meant one thing; We were landing on the Moon.

On July 16, 1969 at the Kennedy Space Center station in Merritt Island, Florida Apollo 11 was launched into space with the excitement of the crowd by the Saturn V rocket. 


Photo 4, “Little Road Trip” 

After the launchment, the spacecraft was moving slowly to the moon in the speed of 8000 km/h. 

The mass of Apollo 11 was 45,702 kg and the crew members were Neil Armstrong, ,Michael Collins and Buzz Aldrin.

The Crew was finally out of the earth atmosphere and was now moving as twice as fast as 10 minutes ago. 

 

Photo 7, “In the Orbit” 

Apollo 11's landing on the moon took a total of 8 days, 35 hours, 18 minutes and 3 seconds. In this picture, it is in the Moon orbit. 


Photo 8,9 “One small step for me, but one big step for humanity” 

The Crew was out of the spacecraft after 8 days, 35 hours, 18 minutes and 3 seconds. And was examining the moon surface.

Hackathon Journey

we learned to be a team, to work as a team and to design new things and at the same time we had a lot of fun.
