Autonomous Construction Engineering in Mars Environment

  • Objective : Occupy Mars

  • Use Case : How will humans settle in a hostile environment ?

That’s where “ACE-MARS” come to the picture, building the basic blocks for survival.

  • History : Relive the Space Race since Sputnik in 21st century

  • SOA : Starship, New Shepard, Mangalyaan, Chinese Mission

  • Ideas

    • Wall Prefabrication & Setup

    • Solar Rooftop : Transmission and installation

    • 3D printing - cutting edge, brick & kiln low cost using existing

    • Block Extraction - hyperloop, boring company by elon musk
