Lunar Factory

0.00€

After the publication of Le Carré Bleu number 2-3 / 2017 dedicated to “OrbiTecture”, the Center for Near Space is back with an issue of the historic architecture and urban planning magazine focused this time on the Lunar Factory, that is, on the prospect of building on the Moon – and also in other points of the Cislunare City – a production capacity based on the use of extra-terrestrial resources: energy, water, propellants, raw and precious materials.

Lunar Factory, the issue edited by the CNS of Le Carré Bleu – La collection, is the result of a long research and design work by the experts of the OrbiTecture program to imagine future habitats on the Moon. From the dimensioning overview of the Cislunar City to the complex transport system, from the “urban planning” logic – that is, how to design possible settlements of dozens and dozens of people on the Moon – to the technological support systems, from the legislative challenges for a correct and democratic management of these settlements to the social, cultural, technological and infrastructural evolution aspects, and to the role of the new generations in this exciting process.
