emulate, as closely as possible, the experience of working as a member of an aerospace industry proposal team.

They must define an overall structure, define construction methods, determine quantities of electrical power and water, design computer and robotics systems, specify allocation of interior space, show examples of pleasant community design, and provide estimated costs and schedules for completion of the project.
