Space Architecture
Space Architecture is concerned with the design of extraterrestrial structures that rely on in-situ resource utilisation and robotic construction. Rhizome 1.0 approaches developed in 2021-22 for underground off-Earth habitats on Mars using Design-to-Robotic-Production-Assembly and -Operation (D2RPA&O) methods will be further advanced in Rhizome 2.0 and/ or Moon Station in order to demonstrate the scalability of the concept. The aim is to (a) understand whether approaches are applicable to large i.e., ‘real-life’ construction scale and (b) outline the associated challenges and develop appropriate solutions. In this context, the design takes functional, structural, material, and operational aspects into account. It furthermore, integrates sensor-actuators into the life-support system of the habitat. It takes advantage of Computer Vision (CV) and Human-Robot Collaboration/ Interaction (HRC/ I) at various stages in the construction process.
