First Lunar Habitats

3D Model

This is an atrium and hall for a crew of 30, who could live here permanently if they wished. The set of large beams over the glazed roof of the atrium reduces radiation and protects from meteoroids while letting in enough light for a large garden. The manual centrifuge prevents health problems due to low gravity. The two airlocks are large and protected enough to serve as garage spaces where rovers and other equipment can be brought for repair. This design is for an aggressive sustained campaign to settle the Moon. It is how you do it right. It is a draft for the virtual Moon colonies of Moonwards.
