NASA’s Human Lander Challenge
(HuLC) is an initiative supporting its Exploration Systems Development
Mission Directorate’s (ESDMD’s) efforts to explore innovative solutions for a
variety of known technology development areas for human landing systems (HLS).
Landers are used to safely ferry astronauts to and from the lunar surface as
part of the mission architecture for NASA’s Artemis campaign. Through this
challenge, college students contribute to the advancement of HLS technologies,
concepts, and approaches. Improvements in these technology areas have the
potential to revolutionize NASA’s approach to space exploration, and
contributions from the academic community are a valuable part of the journey to
discovery. HuLC is open to teams comprised of full-time or part-time
undergraduate and/or graduate students at an accredited U.S.-based community
college, college, or university. HuLC projects allow students to
incorporate their coursework into real aerospace design concepts and work
together in a team environment. Interdisciplinary teams are encouraged.
Award: $126,000 in total prizes
Open Date: August 29, 2025
