Ok, well since it's probably going to be a slow month, we decided to do a session which is just plain fun and might not be all that related to product design anyways (we'll leave that for next months session).

This month we're going for single seater Mars Explorers original.gif In short, try to sketch out your vision on a manned controlable vehicle or device used to explore the martian surface. You're free to make an open vehicle with the driver resorting to his won outfit or a closed one.. wheels or legs or perhaps floating? It's your call!
However, this will be a martian device.. try to express that in your sketches. The vehicle will be used for exploring by NASA or ESA (no point for example to have earthly tones for camouflage or something.. or camouflage at all.. who says we're at war on mars?).

Very curious to see what we're all going to come up with.. here's a small pic I found that might get you guys going msn-wink.gif (Image from http://www.khangle.net/ )
