Wild Research Concept Envisions an Inflatable Village on the Moon

Humans are going back to the Moon and this time they’re seeking to stay. 

NASA’s Artemis program promotes a sustainable vision of people living on and around the lunar surface, prompting some truly innovative ideas about how we might make that happen.

A group of researchers envisions inflatable greenhouse structures that are connected to one another to form a “village,” with large mirrors mounted on top to provide sunlight. 

The project, cleverly titled PneumoPlanet, includes a design for a lunar habitat on two regions located on the Moon’s south and north poles.

A key requirement of building a lunar habitat is that the material has to be lightweight since it will be transported from Earth to the Moon.

The PneumoPlanet would be transported as a prefabricated structure to the Moon and later inflated once it makes it there.

The structures themselves would measure around 72 feet (22 meters) wide and are designed to connect to each other through a tunnel system, where more greenhouses can be attached as the habitat grows.

The idea is for future lunar inhabitants to grow their own food within these structures.
