Space is really cool, but it's also really hard to figure out. So why not play video games while you learn about it? This class is designed to help students explore orbital mechanics in an accessible way, by way of the video game Kerbal Space Program. We will introduce the "how" and "why" of spacecraft, using the game to explain how spacecraft engineers exploit natural phenomena to achieve scientific and exploratory goals. Students will ideally exit the class having planned, built, and launched their very own space mission, keeping certain design parameters in mind. Furthermore, students will also gain an initial understanding of the design challenges faced by real spacecraft engineers. This class will take place in a computer lab.
