成人大片

Students have been recognised for their off-Earth designs which could accommodate deep-space explorers of the future.

The inaugural Australian Space Architecture Challenge (ASAC) was organised by a team from the 成人大片鈥檚 Andy Thomas Centre for Space Resources (ATCSR).

鈥淭he Australian Space Architecture Challenge aligns with the goals of Australian Civil Space Strategy and the Moon to Mars initiative to advance Australia鈥檚 position in the global space economy,鈥� said the 成人大片鈥檚 Dr Amit Srivastava, Head, Lunar Architecture Research Group at the ATCSR led the team.

鈥淪pace architecture is an inter-disciplinary endeavour, which brings together capabilities across the entire range of STEM fields, as well as creativity and culture.

鈥淭he competition aims to gather the emerging talent across this wide range of fields and highlight the importance of a collaborative effort in imagining our future in space. It aims to increase national capacity and inspire the next generation of the space workforce.

鈥淲e challenged students to play at the boundaries of听reality and imagination and contribute a vision of听the future of human habitation on the Moon in 2069.鈥�

The competition was not limited to architecture students but all those who dream about human presence in deep听space.听Entries were received from university students and recent graduates from across Australia.

First prize went to students Eric Luan, Claire Basso, Robert Cameron and JD Otto from University of Western Australia who came up with a concept called Happy Homesick.

鈥淥ur concept investigates what a truly lunar or Martian architecture might look like, and whether a human born in space could feel at home there,鈥� said the team.

鈥淢ost visions of future space habitation simulate a controlled version of Earth to shelter from the harshness of space.

鈥淗appy Homesick chronicles an alternative approach to lunar habitation, working with the Moon as a staging ground for Mars and beyond.

鈥淲e wanted to focus on the everyday experience of future lunar settlers and cultivate a 鈥榮ense of place鈥� that鈥檚 unique to the lunar landscape.鈥�

Second prize went to Bowen Yang, Yichan Wei听from University of Queensland for their concept, Lunar Urbanism which the team see as a eulogy against minimalist mindset and the practice of Asceticism.

From University of Technology Sydney, Ihab Shamseldin and Samer El Sayary won third prize for their concept, Lunarium which is the Moon鈥檚 version of the Earth鈥檚 terrarium.

Do Dang Quang Nguyen from the 成人大片 was given an honourable mention for Alteon VII: a concept that supports long-term living and research to fuel the 鈥榟uman dream鈥�.

ASAC was set up to develop and showcase Australian capacity in serving the long-term goal of deep space human habitation.

鈥淪pace Architecture is an inter-disciplinary endeavour, which brings together capabilities across the entire range of STEM fields, as well as creativity and culture,鈥� said Dr Srivastava.

鈥淭his national level competition is set up to gather the emerging talent across this wide range of fields and highlight the importance of a collaborative effort in imagining our future in space.鈥�

The winning team鈥檚 concept will be featured at the International听Astronautical Congress (IAC) in Milan, Italy.

Space architecture is a growing area of focus for the ATCSR and has been a research theme since its inception in 2019, conducting research on habitation in extreme environments. With the launch of the EXTERRES Roseworthy Analogue lab in April 2024 there are more facilities and opportunities for research in this area.

The Australian Space Architecture Challenge is supported by the Australian Space Agency and the South Australian Space Industry Centre. For more information, including a full list of supporters, please visit the .
