This is one of the many reasons Mars City Design® wanted to take this necessary step by creating the URBAN FARMING for EXTREME ENVIRONMENT competition . in a new book “Mars City States: New Societies for a New World.” The city state should be self-supporting to the maximum extent following basis: The Mars Society contest is open to all people from around the world. things that people require on Earth takes a lot more than 1,000,000 people, therefore Victor Tangermann July 30th 2018. participating teams will need to augment both the amount and diversity of To help develop ideas, participants might want to consider a number of sources including SpaceX plans, NASA data, Robert Zubrin’s books “The Case for Mars” and the “The Case for Space” and concepts for 1,000 person Mars colonies developed in response the Mars Society’s 2019 Mars Colony Prize contest published recently in "Mars Colonies: Plans for Settling the Red Planet" [The Mars Society is pleased to welcome Anastasia Stepanova, an engineer at the Russian Academy of Science’s Institute of Biomedical Problems and veteran crew member of two major space simulation programs – SIRIUS (Scientific International Research in Unique Terrestrial Station) and the Mars Society’s Mars160, as a virtual plenary speaker at the 23rd Annual International Mars Society Convention, scheduled for October 15-18.
