Description

The DIY Moon Rover Science Kit invites students to explore engineering and energy concepts through a hands-on build inspired by space exploration. Students assemble a wooden rover model, attach functional components, and see how electrical power can be used to drive motion.

The rover includes a DC motor that powers movement, a battery pack, and solar panels that mount to the back of the model. As students construct the rover, they learn how individual components work together to create a functioning system, reinforcing foundational ideas about energy transfer and mechanical motion.

This kit is designed to be approachable and engaging, making it well suited for classrooms, clubs, and enrichment activities. The wooden construction encourages careful assembly and problem-solving, while the powered motor brings the project to life once completed.

The DIY Moon Rover Science Kit supports exploration, curiosity, and discussion around real-world engineering challenges, helping students connect classroom science concepts to tangible outcomes.

Note: Requires two AA batteries (not included).
