Hassell and ESA project

The arrival of humans on our satellite comes with challenges that must be overcome, including the habitability of a hostile environment.

Over the years, space exploration has been accompanied by the return of people to the Moon. NASA’s Artemis mission wants to return our species to Earth’s natural satellite, even if we hit more than one rock along the way. Now, thanks to a project by the European Space Agency, it seems we can get an idea of what would it be like to live on the moonWith design Really futuristic and this will make it possible to study the habitability of the satellite.

Hassell and ESA’s Master Plan to Populate the Moon

The English company Hassell recently published a news story presenting a master plan for a lunar habitat. We are talking about project in which, in addition to this company, European Space Research and Technology Center from ESA and researchers from Cranfield University.

The project proposed by Hassell, which involved anthropologists, psychologists, robotics experts and astronauts, is intended to serve as a launching pad for the creation first human settlement on the moon. To do this, they are looking for the ideal design to surround 150 people you can live permanently in low gravity conditions.

This general plan Not only is he committed to having humans live on the moon, but he also wants to look at various ways our species could survive on the moon, including integration places to enjoy entertainment activitiesfrom restaurants or even kinds of sports.

and, according to information published on the project company’s website, its goal is to create a habitat that will serve “middle for critical work national agenciesincluding NASA, ESA and JAXA, and commercial space agenciescompanies and tourists.”

And if we talk about the design of this habitat, then we would have to talk, first of all, about 3D printed components, which will be the basis of the system and will serve to create an external level of protection. The foundation of the buildings came from the hands ‘six-legged’which will form structures, and cabins that inflate to accommodate all types of locations.

Moreover, it is interesting to see how Components from this system it would be possible to create from material found on the Moonbe able to print this out directly on our satellite. Some of the habitat will be buried on the surface of the Moon, and some of the habitat will be buried on the surface of the Moon. tunnel system will connect different rooms. Xavier De Questellier, Head of Innovation at Hassell, states that:

Access to space is becoming cheaper every year, so space travel will grow rapidly over the next two decades. We cannot now predict how the lunar community will develop. Therefore, we have developed a master plan that adapts to change and allows for different types of lunar settlements to be accommodated in the future.
