Mars 'Habitat

Mars' Corona

The project is about creating a habitat on top of Mars, where a new habitat is needed to give people a place to live because of the future shortage of resources on Earth. Because Mars is a more suitable place for people to live, there is a thin atmosphere, there are abundant water ice resources, more suitable for people to mine, people can more easily mine out water resources to supply people's lives, Mars is more rich in resources, so the choice of Mars as a habitat.

Life in the Habitat

The environment in which humans live inside the Mars base is overall a circle, and there are some ducts for ventilation, and there are a lot of places to provide rest inside the interior.

Eating in the Habitat

Overall it's much the same as Earth, but the stools are fixed to the floor by being more sturdy, so they can't be moved around, but the stools can avoid changing position and having an impact on the space.

Growing vegetables in the habitat

Growing vegetables in the habitat is done efficiently by using the top layer of the base, the only exposed layer, as the area for planting and dividing the area into zones for planting when planting.

Common areas of the habitat

This area is a visualisation of the communal area inside the habitat, which is provided for people to wash, change clothes and so on, and the shutters next to it are designed to provide a constant flow of oxygen to the people.

Mars habitat

This picture mainly shows some sections of the habitat to show the structure of each floor and between each floor, up and down through the middle of the lift as a means of transport, the top part of the use of glass as a material in order to be able to better absorb the sunlight, to ensure that the growth of plants, each floor can provide 12 living areas, a total of three buildings similar to this, a building to provide 36 habitable areas, a total of 108 people can be accommodated in the life inside.
