Are dreams about interplanetary journeys and colonization of neighboring planets still a scientific fantasy? For young enthusiasts from the Wrocław University of Technology dreams already take very specific shapes. They designed a ship capable of getting to Mars; also prototypes of rovers are being constructed and they will be adjusted to function in the conditions on Mars; architectural plans of habitats are being prepared – houses for the first people who will conquer distant colonies on Mars. Works of the group from Wrocław have been noticed and appreciated by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) to which they were invited to present their project. Rovers from Wrocław each year take top places in prestigious competitions taking place on the desert in Utah, USA. Recently they got two first positions in the University Rover Challenge international contest in the USA. Hyperion made by a team from the Białystok University of Technology won, and Scorpio III made by a team from the Wrocław University of Technology took second place.
