Create a Solar Powered Mars Rover that moves with this fun filled STEM project!
Learn about solar energy by creating a simple solar circuit in minutes using only conductive tape! Cut out your Mars Rover, decorate it, then add your solar cell and vibrating motor! All parts are connected with our special Maker Tape conductive tape, perfect for younger students. Once built these bots will move around in the sun, and best of all they'll never run out of power!
