6The Mechanical Hive The Mechanical Hive Lunar Base, located near the lava tubes, relies on hexagonal structural stability inspired by nuts and bolts. This innovative design ensures resilience in the lunar environment while combining sustainability with lunar exploration. It marks a significant leap towards establishing a permanent human presence on the moon.
125WinnerLunar StalactiteThe Lunar Stalactite Colony is a Self-Sustained Habitat Research & Communications Station located beneath the Sinuous Rille. Encased withing a lava tube, the sub-surface station hangs atop the roof of the cave beneath a crater opening. The sub-surface station provides habitable environment with research and development facilities & leisure spaces.
12Editor's ChoiceAitkenThe project is named after its location in Aitken - a large lunar impact crater that lies on the far side of the Moon. In accordance with the peculiarities of habitation - a daily temperature difference of 200 °C, radiation exposure - the space base is a closed self-regulating structure with the possibility of qualitative and quantitative changes over time.
