| dc.description | For all human history, our ancestors have looked to the stars to find meaning and understanding of ourselves and our world. Our ancestors found no distinction between earth and the heavens; the sky was an extension of our existence in which was reflected in science, religion, philosophy, art and literature. (See history of astronomy for further explanation and examples) As we look to the stars today, we find ourselves questioning our place in the universe. Our curious nature to explore the unknown is a basic human instinct that seeks a better understanding of the world. Our desire to seek knowledge has placed us in front of a new challenge, a new world; planet Mars. The question of whether to take on Mars as the new destination for humankind is not only a goal but also a reflection of the pioneering spirit of our society. Mars is the next logical step for all humanity to explore and make it the new home. | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | What and how will we define the role of an architect in the interdisciplinary industry, the Space Industry? This thesis is not solving a particular problem by any means, but it’s an investigation to understanding the value an architect can bring to the Space Industry. This value is investigated through the design and study of building materials, and the psychological influence confined and extreme environments have on people. Architects design environments that affect the physical and psychological well-being of individuals; these spaces shape the way we feel, think and behave. It’s a significant role that will add a valuable contribution to the process of creating the new world on Mars. | en_US |
