Our Mission
Capitalism has made its way to Mars, and our goal is to build a TRACTOR for Commercializing The Obtainable Resources (TRACTOR) to mine as many resources as possible. We acquire these resources by interacting with our company's Mineral Identification, Nucleation, and Extraction Rigs (MINERs) and moving them to proper areas of the Peterson Pediment. Learn more on the "ABOUT" page!
Our Team and TRACTOR
Our TRACTOR uses the power of NdFeB permanent magnets to grab as many MINERs as possible, whether belonging to friend or foe!
Performance
Our TRACTOR made it to a respectable place in the quarterfinals!!
In our exciting quarterfinal match, we successfully stole the other team's MINER (along with one of our own) and put it in our scoring location, giving us the lead in points! Unfortunately the other TRACTOR sensed the MINER and chased after us, pinning us in the scoring square. This caused a 60+ second stalemate, during which our motors started smoking. While we still had the lead in points, we were DQ'ed due to the "no pyrotechnics" rule on Mars.
