Who knew a few hundred cans could turn into a rocket — and help feed local families at the same time? 🚀🥫 At CANstruction Philadelphia, our team took inspiration from Artemis II, NASA’s first crewed mission to return humans to the moon and prepare for Mars exploration. All of the hard work and creativity paid off with an award-winning build that earned the team this year’s People’s Choice Award! Even better, every can used will be donated to local food banks across the Philly region.
