I DON'T UNDERSTAND EITHER OF THESE PLZ HELP ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!thx=)
Stop being rude guys btw you cant get kicked out because they dont know who you are because everyone has that lesson including me its soo hard i dont understand it either

Procedure:
1. Read an article, and use the article to jump-start your thinking about designing your very
own space mission. Think about what you want to explore in the solar system (and why!)
and how you might get there. Click on the link below to read the Science NetLinks article
“Planning My Own Mission.”

2. When you have a sense of where your mission will take you, revisit the Make a Mission:
Build a Spacecraft to Explore the Planet Mercury interactive to get a sense of how NASA
designs spacecraft for specific missions. Use the interactive to help you determine which
kind of vehicle you will need to complete your space mission. (Note: the interactive was
designed to explore the planet Mercury; you can simply use the interactive to collect
information about different vehicles and their components.) Once in the interactive, click
on the How to Play button for information on how to navigate through the interactive.

3. Develop a simple outline of your planned space mission, and review it with your
Learning Coach to ensure you have taken enough time to adequately plan your mission.
When your Learning Coach has approved your outline, complete the activities below.
Activities:
1. Explain where your space mission will take you and why you wish to explore that
particular feature of the solar system. List what you hope to learn from your mission. 3 points
2. Identify any challenging conditions that you may encounter on your mission; this may
include near vacuum conditions, extreme temperatures, and microgravity. Explain how
you will overcome these challenges with the design of your spacecraft.

3. Design: Describe, using specific details, the spacecraft that you and/or other explorers will use
to travel to your destination. In addition, make a detailed sketch of the spacecraft and its
components that you will submit to your teacher for grading. You may create a sketch by hand
and photograph it or create a digital sketch using appropriate software.
