Currently, there does not exist a central repository that contains all the digital assets that have been created by the Psyche Student Collaboration teams. The sponsor desired for the Team 02B to develop a method to classify and organize the data for long term archiving. Team 02B created a Standard Operation Procedure (SOP) for the creation and organization of a central repository where all of the digital assets that have been created will be cataloged and stored, along with those created in the future.

Psyche is both the name of an asteroid orbiting the Sun between Mars and Jupiter — and the name of a NASA space mission to visit that asteroid. Psyche Run is a fully functional web-based game for the NASA Psyche project to engage the user and help them feel connected to the mission in an exciting way. The game is a maze that has educational questions directing the player along the way to inform the public on aspects of the Psyche mission.

To commemorate the partnership between NASA and ASU a full sized model of the Psyche spacecraft is being built for display in ISTB4 on Tempe campus. Our team's capstone project was to develop and implement an interactive lighting system and an educational user interface for the model. These systems enable visitors to learn the intricacies about the spacecraft and mission while having fun at the same time.

The NASA Psyche mission is set to launch an orbital mission in 20022 and subsequent missions may use surface exploration to learn more about Psyche. Our goal was to propose possible solutions for providing power to such a mission. Our solution is a Phosphorous screened Photovoltaic System which will convert ambient and direct cosmic radiation to energy for the surface spacecraft.

The Hollow Cathode Visualization Project (Psyche Copper Class Project 06a) is a digital visualization of hollow cathodes, a component powering a type of Solar Electric Propulsion thrusters referred to as Hall thrusters, on NASA's Psyche Satellite. Our project aims to help educate how hollow cathodes operate to as general an audience as possible. To accomplish this, Psyche Team 06a developed a site to host a 2D animation of the process created in the Unity development environment.

Our capstone group was tasked with developing an interactive demonstration of diagnostics used during the testing of Hall Thrusters. We have developed a webpage describing the Faraday Probe, and Retarding Potential Analyzer. Additionally, we developed a simulation of how these diagnostics function during the testing process.

Our contribution to the NASA Psyche web-based game capstone project at Arizona State University is the Psyche Scanner game. Using the Unity engine, our team has created a simple, 2.5D video game intended to educate players about the upcoming NASA Psyche mission to a metal rich asteroid of the same name.

As a part of the Psyche Mission, Team 07B worked to design an autonomous landing system capable of landing on the asteroid (16) Psyche. The landing system was designed for a potential future landing mission to further explore and learn about the mostly-metal world of Psyche.

With this project, we set out to create the functionality to calculate observation outlines for images that partially look into space. It will be useful for missions to asteroids and comets to be able to calculate regions on irregular shaped bodies that have been covered by a particular image, regardless of whether the body completely fills the field of view.

The purpose of this project is to create and implement a process to better sort, find, and display all of the quantitative and qualitative data about the artwork from the Psyche Inspired NASA program. This process will be used as a tool through the life of the Psyche mission to those who are in need of the data and as a possible public reference to the state of each piece of artwork following the mission. The process includes archiving, cataloging, how to properly preserve, and lending out Psyche Inspired artworks.

This project was proposed to create excitement for the NASA Psyche mission which is set to send a satellite to orbit the Psyche asteroid that is believed to be made up of the core of an ancient planet. Our team created a web-based, 2-D platformer game based on a Psyche asteroid mission set in the far future. It is intended to create excitement for people interested in the Psyche mission and space exploration in general.

Team Asteroid Electrical Explorists presents a power solution that takes on an integrated approach to sustained power generation, storage, and delivery tailored for a hypothetical mission on the surface of the metallic asteroid Psyche. Our base station design provides a deployable power infrastructure for both onboard scientific payload operations and the asteroid surface exploration rover, and is configurable for tomorrow's scientific mission needs.

We have been tasked to design a hypothetical lander's power system solution for deployment to an metal-rich asteroid known as (16) Psyche, lying within our Solar System's Asteroid Belt. Our group has chosen a battery powered solution in order to supply electrical current to our lander's components with a reasonable data acquisition period and financial efficiency. We have designed a system in which 4 sensors measure the environment and transmit data wirelessly and instantaneously, while simultaneously maintaining a temperature control for our system to combat the heat radiating effects of cold outer space.

The game Asteroids and Aspirations is a visual novel with a point-and-click game style. The user views the environment in first person view and has mechanics to roam around as the character, make decisions, and complete tasks and mini-games to advance the story-line. As the player progresses, their choices will ultimately determine which kind of ending they receive at the end of the game’s narrative.

This project aims to create a virtual reality experience which will demonstrate a visual simulation of the NASA Psyche mission. The purpose of developing this software is to allow the viewer to get familiar with the spacecraft, its instruments and its relative size. The goal is to have a public audience interact with the software and learn more about Psyche and the spacecraft that will embark on a journey orbiting a unique metal asteroid.
