Walters talks about the importance of collaboration and systems engineering in the engineering design process. At the University of Maryland, one class strikes fear in the hearts of space systems-track students more than any other. Dr Dave Akin's senior design class is legendary in the department, thanks to its massive workload and capacity to provoke stress, frustration and even tears. This year, her class was blessed with what Dr Akin calls the second hardest project he's ever assigned (the first being designing a human mission to as many points of interest in the solar system as possible in a single vehicle). Their mission: establish a 24-person Martian settlement, totally independent of Earth, by 2054, using only a fraction of NASA's exploration budget.
