Our team is called Vallachian Astronauts. Because we are from the Czech Republic, the region of Vallachia. Our base is currently for two astronauts, but it could be expanded. The Moon is the closest cosmic body on which humans can land. And that’s why humanity can use it as a stepping stone for space exploration.

lava tunnel, near to the Pole

We would like to build our Moon Camp into a lava tunnel, near the place that has been irradiated by the sun for a long time.

The robots will insert our base into the tunnel we are adjusting. We chose the underground to protect astronauts from meteors and radiation. Solar radiation will spread light (through optical fibers)  – plants, solar panels – electricity, water heating – heat.

The ice is converted into a liquid by a robot with microwave radiation and sucked into a robotic tank and brought to the station. Moreover, the The water from the dishwasher, shower and washbasin will be further recycled into drinking water. Urine and part of the water from the shower will be used for irrigation in the greenhouse. Oxygen and hydrogen will be obtain by the decomposition of water (electrolysis).

There is a greenhouse at the base. Sunlight is transmitted into the greenhouse by optical cables. For some time, the greenhouse is shaded to simulate the night. Jerusalem artichokes, beans, peas, carrots, sweet potatoes, leeks, garlic and onions are grown here, providing a good source of proteins, vitamins, sugars. Rice, flour and potatoes will be imported from the Earth…

There will be solar panels on the roof of the base; these will also be placed around the station. Moreover, there will be a hydroelectric power plant in the warehouse where hydrogen will be converted into electricity. Hydrogen will be extracted by electrolysis and will be used in the plant, robots and a rocket. As part of the enhancement, a generator will be installed in the booster machines. The surplus of generated electricity will be accumulated.

Plants will form oxygen by photosynthesis. There will also be electrolysis of water to hydrogen and oxygen. Next, we will import something from the soil. Air will be distributed to all rooms using air conditioning.

Firstly, we will send robotic probes. The robots will prepare space for the base — excavation. Then a probe will arrive with the base’s modules. Each floor will be a part of the rocket and it will be made of steel. The robots will mount the modules on the top of themselves and prepare the base for use. The surface will be covered with regolith -fired regolith plates). Astronauts will arrive with all the supplies.

Our base is underground, so it will protect them from high temperatures, radiation and meteors. The above-ground section is an airlock and is covered with regolith and solar panels. There are also robots parked there and spacesuits left behind.

In the morning he has to get breakfast. He works out on exercise machines and he completes his morning hygiene.
Then the astronaut checks the functionality of the machines. He goes out to collect some samples from the outside. He examines these samples or does some necessary work.
At noon he has to make lunch and then he has a rest. It is time to relax.
In the afternoon he examines samples or does other tasks.
In the evening he has to make dinner. Again he goes to work out on exercise machines. He checks the functionality of the machines. He writes the results of his research and observations. He communicates with the Earth.
At night he does his evening hygiene. After that, he goes to sleep.
