These videos will be judged on the quality of communication presented, and will be awarded a multiplying factor that will count towards the teams final score if they make it to the finals at the end of the year.

By 22 May, the teams must submit their design review documentation so that their projects can be rated. Then in September, when Andreas is on the space station, all of the student teams involved have the opportunity of participating in a Live WebEx interviews with ESA robotics experts.

In December, the competition reaches its final phase. The remaining teams will assemble at ESAs European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC), The Netherlands for the grand final.

Over two days, the teams will compete with one another to see whose robot can move more cargo from one part of a mock ISS to another, avoiding collisions on the way.

Andreas will be there the whole time, mingling with the students and answering their questions about his time in space. At the end of the competition, he will present the prizes to the winners.

The whole competition is an exciting way to engage school children from across Europe with the space industry, and foster team work. ESA encourages each team to include people with a wide spread of expertise and skills.

A measure of the success can be gauged by reactions to the inaugural version of the competition. Christoph Herderich, the NeXT Hacker Generation Team Leader said, It was a great experience for the students and I really wish that other teams will get the chance to make similar experiences,

Christopher Beard, Manchester Communication Academy, Team Leader of Space Raiders said,[It] was an amazing experience for the students and the response from other staff, students, parents, media, and other people has been amazing.
