TITLE 
Operation Mars 2083
MajorArchitecture [M.Arch]
DescriptionOperation Mars 2083 is a speculative project that investigates utilizing a modular wall panel, roof panel, and floor panel as the basis of creating habitable communities on Mars. The project assumes that in the year 2084 there has been a discovery of water reservoirs within the craters of Mars, and with this access to a vital resource as well Mars low atmospheric pressure, allows for habitable environments within these craters. The Modules are made up of Composite fiberglass components that are extremely lightweight and easy to ship and site assemble. Modules are shipped to Mars with the first colonists, with a detailed set of instructions on assembly, and colonists will build their living units of varying size. As the colony population grows, so does the community working its way down the crater. A central core runs through the entire community down to the water reservoirs of the crater and pumps water up and to the varying floors of the colony. Ultimately this sets a blueprint for the easily deployable living units to remote areas with minimal to no infrastructure for building.
