Martian house built in the United Kingdom.
As humans, we are percent sure we want to go to Mars . No doubt…
So much so that a Martian house was even recently introduced in the heart of Bristol, UK.
The Martian House was conceived by artists Ella Good and Nicki Kent, who wanted to use Mars as a lens to focus on what we need and how we want to live on Earth.
Additionally, the project was designed by two British architecture and design firms called Hugh Broughton Architects, who have designed several scientific stations in Antarctica, and Pearce+.
The structure will open to the public next week and will host a series of talks and workshops on sustainable living, according to Fast Company.
How it began?
Building a Martian h Brazil Mobile Number List ouse requires a lot of teamwork. It started as an idea in , with only artists Ella Good and Nicki Kent on board.
This project was inspired by numerous experiments that have been carried out around the world for more than two decades. Many people on Earth have been practicing sending people to Mars . To start, here are some examples: Mars (Russia + ESA), Hi-Seas (NASA), MDRS (Mars Society), and Biosphere are examples of spacecraft.
In , Ella Good and Nicki Kent met with Professor Lucy Berthoud, a spacecraft systems engineer, and she joined the team.
Ella Good and Nicki Kent met architect Hugh Broughton and received a small grant from the Edward Marshall Trust to collaborate on design projects with the architectural firm. Dr Bob Myhill, a scientist, also joined the team in and the conceptual design was produced in
Planning permission was granted by Bristol City Council in October
SCF Construct joined the project team in and recruited construction companies to donate materials and labor.
June : The building is scheduled to begin, with opening planned for August, until the end of October.
Life on Mars may be possible
Unlike the flurry of fantastical depictions of Mars colonies that have flooded the Internet, Martian House is a tangible object designed to get people thinking about living on scarce resources and within their means in a restricted environment that is not driven by the consumerism.
«We are building a Martian house. "It will be a real-life house that you can walk into and imagine how we could live on another planet," said Ella Good and Nicki Kent.
“It is often said that today we have more technology in our pockets than what took NASA to the moon. “This project is about seeing what is possible and how far we can go with what we have here and now,” he also added.
"Our house will be built by many people who will come together and share their knowledge, skills and enthusiasm, working with space scientists, engineers, architects and the local community."
While designing the Martian house, the motto was that the red planet could withstand the harsh climatic conditions.
"I'm sure there are technical glitches, or someone would say 'the dimensions of the rocket are these and your house wouldn't fit like that', but that's not the point," says Hugh Broughton, founder of Hugh Broughton Architects.
“It aims to represent, as closely as possible, what a house on Mars would be like, but actually in the process raise questions about our own lives on Earth.”
