Zeus
Goal: Analyze Europa with orbital and surface missions to search for the possibility of life and to fully understand Europa
Theme: Carl Sagan to find life beyond our own planet and to unite the planet while doing so
Why we chose Europa:

Follow the dream of Carl Sagan to find life on other planets by going to Jupiter's moon Europa. This requires setting up The Sagan, a transit vehicle between Earth and Jupiter, and a launch to the surface of Europa. The Europa landing crew will collect samples to learn more about the planet and its ability to harbor life.

Funding will come from NASA, which will be requested through a formal budget request. Public support will be crucial in order to increase NASA's budget, which we have outlined a plan for.

- Selection of the crew and mission support will be similar to current NASA protocol, however Zeus's process focuses more on experience and leadership then academic achievement.
- With the crew selected, they must then be developed within qualities of leadership, analogous jobs and environment expertise.
- In order to do so, leadership will be surveyed and developed within candidates, and only the finalized crew will then move onto simulations in subsections.

- Due to collaborations with NASA, and optimization of time and cost for launching, medium rockets will be used for all launches involving the Zeus mission.
- The Sagan will be constructed in LEO, and to do so Falcon 9 rockets and Atlas V rockets will be sufficient.
- The crew will be sent to the Sagan in LEO on a Soyuz.

- Due to the thickness of the ice, the supply mission would contain a variety of drill equipment and any necessary parts/fuel to keep the drill going one automated
- There will be a single resupply mission for food which will launch 1-2 weeks after Sagan makes its way to Europa in order to restock their rations for the trip back
- Any other materials required to sustain the mission would be sent on the supply trip as well; extra parts for the Sagan, replacement parts for the rover, etc.

# data[].attributes.body
- The Sagan will be the transit vehicle between Earth and Jupiter, and is based on that of the Hermes from the Martian.
- Construction of this vehicle will occur in LEO.
- Put Sagan in Orbit around Jupiter when it arrives so that the landing crew can eject and go to Europa
- Vehicle will need to be large enough for 6 crew
- Development of technology to protect astronauts for radiation during transit
- Necessary to be able to survive asteroid impact potentially due to the need to go through the asteroid belt for the mission - although the chance of an asteroid impact is very low

# data[].attributes.body
(Calib)
- The transit between Earth and Europa will take about 5-10 years with our current technology.
- Some major challenges with this will be having enough food and water to sustain the lives of the 6 crew members.
- During transit, similarly to the ISS, they will be required to maintain physical fitness, they will research while on course as they will be passing through the asteroid belt and other objects, and they will provide tests back to headquarters every so often to see what effects deep space has on the human body.

- The crew on the Sagan will observe the moon through orbit
- After an orbit period we will send 3 people down to the surface. During this 3 will remain on the Sagan to monitor the landing of the other 3, map the surface, and more.
- The drill will be left on the surface to continue experiments
- The landing crew will eject to orbit Europa and eventually land inside of the launch vehicle

# data[].attributes.body
(Trenton)
-The crew should take samples of the surface and water plume
-Tests to test for compounds associated with life.
-JAXA rover should be used to increase exploration and samples.
-Autonomous drill should be set up to make hole to the predicted ocean underneath the surface

- Europa is smoothest object in Solar System
- Landing will need a lot of fuel
- Parachute = Useless
- Majority would simply be orbits

-Inflatable Habitat is better for minimal volume and weight.
-The habitat will be powered by a small nuclear reactor.
-Ice will be used to make water and oxygen for the mission.
-Food should be brought along from Earth.

- After the arrival to Europa the 3 on Europa gather the data. They then will launch back to the Sagan with the other 3. From that point the team of 6 will move onward back to Earth
- Using the same vehicle used to land on the planet, the 3 crew members on the surface of the planet will fly back up to Sagan
- Once aboard the Sagan, the crew of six will return to Earth
- Similarly to transit, they will continue to maintain their physical fitness, continue research, and provide tests for scientists.
