Scientists can use solar power to provide electricity on the Moon or Mars, but there is one big problem—dust! How does dust cover impact the power output of a solar panel? How could scientists and astronauts mitigate this problem to keep the solar panels producing at their maximum output? Try this science project yourself and find out!

LEDs (light-emitting diodes) are electronic components that convert a portion of the electrical energy flowing through them into light. How does the intensity of the light produced vary with the current flowing through the LED? To find out, you'll build some simple circuits to vary the current flowing an LED. You'll also build a simple light-to-voltage converter circuit to measure LED output.

Industrial robots, medical robots, service robots, household robots, companion robots—humans and robots are around each other in an ever-increasing number of situations. How robots look and act can have a big impact on how humans react to and feel about them. In this science project, you will program a robot with different behaviors to see how people react. Can you make people feel comfortable alongside the robot?
