Survive Test on Moon


The following psychological test has been created in cooperation with NASA. The goal is to verify your working and teaming capabilities at critical situations. The plot is wreckage on the Moon.

Your space ship wrecked on the Moon. According to the planned schedule you were supposed to dock to your mother ship at the altitude of 300 kilometers above the light side of the Moon. However during the hard landing maneuver your space ship was damaged and all equipment destroyed. You managed only to salvage the fifteen items stated below. The life of the crew now depends on your ability to get back to your mother ship. Therefore your task is to select the most needed items for the 300 km long journey.

Order the selected fifteen items according to their importance for the survival. Mark as 1 the most important item, the second most important as 2 and continue like that up to number 15 which will mark the least important item.

Take your time to finish the test. Contrary to the astronauts you have the luxury of several hours to ponder properly.

The most essential aspect is to put yourselves into the shoes of the astronauts and to realize that there are quite different rules on the Moon which do not apply on Earth.
