Abstract
Two concept designs for lunar habitats are explored and developed in this monograph based on human factors/environment-behavior considerations. Attention is given to initial operating configuration design requirements, different technological options and 12 different habitat concepts. Domus 1 is a pressurized self-supporting membrane structure (PSSMS) proposed by Chow and Lin. Dymaxion is a dome structure based on the work of Buckminster Fuller. The master plan, construction sequencing, technical subsystems and interior configuration of both of these concepts are presented.
