Lunar Cruise Lines

The moon has just opened to visitors and your class will launch a company to take tourists there! Design the rocket, select a pilot, market your new tourism business, and more.  

Students will reflect on what activities they most enjoyed and see how these skills are used in a range of careers — including product designer, game designer, HR, data analyst and engineer.
