BG/BRG Gmunden Gmunden-Oberösterreich Austria 16 years old 4 / 1 English Moon
Project: Mánagarmr is a project that aims to create a self-sustaining moon base.
Our base can be 100% self-sufficient in the final construction, as all resources can be obtained on site or are in a cycle system.
The base will be built under the surface of the earth’s moon and is located at the south pole, as there is sunshine at the edge of a crater almost 365 days a year, which we take advantage of with our photovoltaic systems. in addition, water ice can be mined in the craters or natural deuterium and tritium deposits can be exploited.
The construction is carried out using automated vehicles and several EVAs which can be carried out from an orbital station (LOP-G). The material and our self-developed modules are brought into LEO by the Sea Dragon rocket and flown to the moon using a dockable thruster system.
The modules were one of our main goals. We wanted to create modules which could be transported easily and don’t waste room. So we designed a module that could fold its outside walls inwards. The room that is left can be used for transporting parts of interior or connectors for the modules. Our base is currently designed for up to 70 permanent residents but could provide accommodation for just as many “tourists” in actual operation.
