NASA has taken another step to make interplanetary living a reality, naming the top three finalists for its ongoingThe challenge, which began in 2015, has seen teams competing to design shelters suitable for the Moon, Mars and -- optimistically -- beyond.For the fourth level of the third phase of the competition, 11 teams were asked to create full-scale renderings of their designs using modeling software, and short videos explaining their choices.
Previous stages focused on architectural renderings and technologies required to build each design's components.Courtesy Mars Incubator New York-based Team SEArch+/Apis Cor won first place with their unique twisted structure, which comes dotted with small holes to let in natural light. Runner-up Team Zoperhous suggested that their modular structures could be printed by an autonomous rover; and Mars Incubator, a group of engineers and artists, showed a modular design consisting of four distinct spaces, including one for growing plants.In the next round, set for early May, the finalists will 3D-print scale models of their designs as they compete for $800,000 in prize money.
wow, how the future is coming from earlier space shows for kids/youg adults that I use to watch. wow... :-) it's a good thing.
NASA is so objectionable that is its usage is 'Admission to Terrorism.'
Is Nasa considering building shelters out of planetary soil hardened to ceramic by sun collecting mirrors?
We are a long way to go from here...
tech_faq NASA wasted great opportunities after the Moon landings. We could have been on the Moon and Mars by now.🇺🇸
Amazing!
Why My granddaughter just told me to stop asking questions because we are not going because we don't have enough money. Yeah, she is right. Neither are the CNN anchors going. The 1% want their own planet, me on the other hand, want my own country for me and my people. :) 😇👀
So where do our waste go. I know trees and food will grown inside these homes. Will there be a barn of animals or will they residence return to Earth to get more animals. How will this living arrangement affect Earth. Will the new planet be hit with asteriods and comets?

Wow 😮, these are awesome. Wish they had some more Joanna Gaines style, but it’s a cool start.
This will be Earth's living arrangement in the future. I won't be here but I hope the normal people are thinking. And remember the average Man will not trade places with the poor. So this BS is only for the wealthy. The overseers will still be monitoring the Earth with Chaos
In the mapping of the working system of systems and achieve the three dimensions of the Federal Center where NASA is formed in the systems of residence and multiple range of movement through the mechanisms of the team and raise the quality of quality systems
Can we send the entire Trump clan?
