Marvel at future Mars-based designs

Several companies from countries around the world have shared futuristic designs for a human base on Mars.

Setting up a human base on Mars has long been a long-distance project for scientists. For centuries, humans have sought to explore dusty, desolate Mars since Galileo discovered it in 1610.

Billionaire Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX once stated his desire to create a base with a capacity of more than 1 million people on Mars by 2050.

People ask, if you build a base on it, what will it look like? Some have suggested that it will include a large 3D-printed building, containing a 55-inch TV, a gym and growing areas.

Here are some of the most creative and feasible ideas for building a base on Mars.

The facility created by Texas-based construction technology startup ICON in partnership with NASA is a large, 3D-printed building, the technology for building extraterrestrial habitats in the absence of building materials.

Experts built a test room about 158 ​​square meters, at Johnson Space Center, in Texas with the harsh environment conditions like on Mars.

In August, NASA said it was waiting for applicants to participate in a year-long project of cohabitation in a base that simulates life on the red planet and is scheduled to begin in the fall of 2020. .

There will be three missions, each consisting of four crew members living and working in the 3D printed base. Crew missions include simulated spacewalks, scientific research, virtual reality use, and robot control, as well as exchanging communications.

Jason Ballard, co-founder of ICON said: "This is the most similar simulated habitat that humans have built. The project serves a very specific purpose, which is to prepare people for birth. live on another planet".

Billionaire Elon Musk has just announced the plan to send the future Noah's ship to Mars but received many disagreeing opinions. They consider it a not-so-new idea and extremely difficult to achieve in the future. Elon Musk plans to build the base in 2028.

The Mars base was created by Beijing-based design firm Open Architecture, in partnership with Chinese tech giant Xiaomi.

The image of the base launched in 2018 as a compact living space, measuring 2.3m x 2.3m x 1.98m.

The bubble base can inflate, deflate, and fold itself just like opening and closing a suitcase. Inside there is a main living area that includes a bathroom, desk, chair and storage area.

People living in it will use smartphones to control electronic devices in the home.

The construction simulation base in the Gobi desert of China is a complex of 53,330 square meters. The Chinese space agency hopes the base will become a hub for researchers who love to explore and experience the harsh environment on Mars.

The Mars base of scientists École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland will be built by robots, exploiting the natural resources of the Red planet. Only then did they send the crew to Mars to live for at least 9 months.

The research facility will consist of three different modules, the main one being a central core 12.5 meters high and 5 meters in diameter. The three living spaces can accommodate all the important materials and goods, attached to the central core.
