Martian habitat design
Martian habitat design focuses on creating safe, sustainable living spaces for humans on Mars. These habitats must provide life support—air, water, food—and protect against harsh conditions like extreme temperatures, radiation, and dust storms. Structures are often built indoors or underground, using materials that can withstand Mars’ environment or are transported from Earth. They include modules for sleeping, working, and growing food, with systems to recycle resources efficiently. The goal is to ensure long-term safety, health, and comfort for inhabitants, making Mars a viable place for humans to live and explore.
