Mars Solar Array

Welcome to Mars

As you may have realized (standing in the dark) there is no electricity!

Just before the previous team left they put away the solar array to protect it from a sandstorm, which lasted longer than expected so there is now no power to redeploy.

Luckily the designers included the following manual method to do this:

1)     As the position of the sun has moved you need to rotate the solar array by 90 degrees until the yellow connector hits the yellow beam (5 points).

2)     To deploy the solar array you need to push the yellow block all the way in until the white panels are horizontal (10 points).

3)     To maximize sunlight collection the solar array needs to be tilted by 45 degrees by turning the black tyre clockwise until the grey panels touch the 45 degree yellow restrictors (15 points).

However the solar radiation is too severe for a human to survive on the surface, so you will need to construct and code a robot to do this for you.

Enjoy your stay.
