A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Review: Studies and Architecture of Habitability Missions in Mockups and Simulated Environments
This chapter and Chap. 5 introduce and outline important milestones of the journey that lead to increasing the fidelity of habitability studies intended to eventually allow us to design the best-fit extraterrestrial habitats. Beginning with the utilization of mockups and simulated environments in this chapter and in-situ environments in Chap. 5, an overview of exemplar habitats and their associated research that have contributed to studies of extraterrestrial habitability and human factors is presented. For each exemplar habitat, the physical and social settings, as well as mission relevant details, are summarized. Images and schematic plans illustrate the facility layout. For readability and comparability reasons plans have been color coded according to primary human activities. Both short and long duration contributions to knowledge are briefly discussed to emphasize how habitability has slowly emerged as a central focus in the research on human adaptation and wellbeing in extraterrestrial living spaces. The chapter is structured in alignment with the current NASA Technological Readiness Levels. Short guest contributions by astronauts and simulation crewmembers complement the information.
