Introduction
While stories of Mars frequently feature stories of adventure, catastrophes, and wild escapes, the reality of living on Mars would be more mundane: growing food, collecting and analyzing data, and maintaining the machines that keep you alive.
In this activity, you will program Codey Rocky to perform daily tasks in your Mars settlement and learn a new way of organizing and simplifying your programs.
