Scientists have shown the future home of the inhabitants of Mars

Ученые показали будущий дом жителей МарсаThe house is open for visitors from 10 to 16 November.

More recently, the idea of settlements on another planet was just a fantasy, a dream of science fiction writers and romantics, and now leading scientists and research centres join forces to create a real Martian home.

While the truth in the Land, namely the Greenwich Royal Observatory.

The exhibition was developed by astronomers from the Royal Observatory of Greenwich and Stephen Petranek, author of a study on human life on Mars. The house was built with an emphasis on the fact that all materials used and the system should be suitable for comfortable and safe life on Mars.

The domed case is made of bricks that will be produced from the Martian soil, and while they have a similar composition. The team also suggests that the houses will be used for processing and filtering existing on Mars air, in order to minimize the amount of cargo sent from Earth to Mars.

“The idea is to use as many local resources as possible to not take many things with you. Of course, getting to Mars is a very long journey and very expensive, so we take as little as possible,” says Martin Kukula, an astronomer at the Royal Observatory Greenwich: “Inside we grow our own food, the plants we grow in the Martian soil. But it is designed to be a pleasant environment for the astronauts. The trip will take maybe three years, back and forth back six months, six months and two years on the surface of Mars.”

Under the red-brick skin, the house is equipped with everything you might need for a comfortable two year mission. In the above-ground area includes a TV and a day bed for relaxing, with amenities such as a 3D printer. No need to wait six months for new tools and equipment, so they have time to arrive from Earth, the printer gives astronauts the ability to just make your own tool.

The real action takes place underground – in the house for sleeping, storage and operation of oxygen generating equipment. Instead of having to live in isolation from one house will be connected with a team of other house’s underground tunnel system, the ability to communicate with not a limited circle of people will not only use more man hours in research, but also to psychosis.

The house is open for visitors from 10 to 16 November.
