design a martian base

Post by dragon »

sounds like fun
The MoonMars Habitat Student Design Workshop is underway at ESA/ESTEC – working in the inspiring setting of the Erasmus User Centre, the 30 participants have until the end of the week to study, discuss and design a Moon, Mars or other planetary habitat.

The 30 students selected come from 13 different countries and a broad range of background, including engineering, space science, architecture, ergonomics, medicine and psychology.

Sure it does. But didn't you know? We're gonna let Halliburton build it. (They think there's oil on Mars.)

[bigot] They're letting students design it! Well they'll just make it full of beer and strippers and nothing decent in there at all! They are so whingy and they'll probably make good and decent tazpayers pay for all that fun and booze and drugs and sex and all the things that students do! This is ridiculous![/bigot]

Beats me. IIRC, it was theorized by some scientist, and gosh, suddenly, we're eager to go to Mars.

Extinct Martians, of course.

Seems kinda similar to Spaceset. Would probably be pretty fun to attend.

Wait a minute nothing decent in there at all, when it'll be full of beer and strippers, throw in random sex and you've designed heaven :P
