12Organizer's Choice AwardNEW HOUSTONNew Houston, the first self-dependent space settlement planned for 2040, is a synthesis selected from reasonable models that conducted by countless experiments. The significance of New Houston is to make human beings leave the earth and step into space life to become "interstellar species".
5OrbiTechOrbiTech is an orbital infrastructure dedicated to production and research. Additional functions are tourism, hospital, instruction and complementary services.
58Honorable MentionThe Ark of KnowledgeThe more civiliztion develops, the more dangerous and intense issues the Earth is facing. Ecologists give a non-positive prognosis to the Earth's future. In the near future humanity will need to find a new place for living. We need not only save humanity in its physical appearance, but we must find the ways to save our culture and identity.
10Space CloudThis project aims at the minimum cost-effective habitat installation by maintaining the basic needs of people. Asteroid mining is used for establish this habitat.
4ChronosThe structure of the settlement is 6-7 gears (imitation of clockwork). Each module is joined together by connecting the grooves, so a single system of modules is formed - it is a space settlement. At any time, modules can dock and fly apart in different directions bypassing meteorites and other space obstacles.
4Spiral CocoonThe spiral cocoon is a suitable living habitat for humans to live in the space. The project offers an environment that human can live safely and experience being in the space in the comfort of home 'Earth.' The scenario shaped around the idea of Live,work,socialize and produce while observing the wonderful view of space and Earth.
81WinnerMANHATTAN n.2In 1991, eight scientists participated in an experimental project called Ecosphere 2 in Arizona, USA. Although the experiment ultimately failed, its process and results have very important reference value for future human migration to space. The main reason for the failure of the experiment was the lack of sufficient volume and complex ecological system.
4ORIGYN STATIONAll life forms are based on a DNA sequence. DNAs compact nature is an efficient and stable mechanism to transport genetic information and hold the keys to life. Taking the next step and finding life and DNA, is our next step in evolution. The next key to humanity?s life and the future is in Origyn station.
5Honorable MentionSpace InvadersShape is inspired by Von Braun rotating space station and by bicycle wheel. Shape provides artificial gravity and modularity. Station is composed from central core, inner and outer ring. Station revolves once every 60 seconds, 1400 km above the Earth.
6Honorable MentionDAEDALUS STATIONThe Daedalus station is conceived as a starting point for the development of self-constructing habitats in the space. Posing the need to be recyclable and scalable, given the high cost of sending material into space. That is why the primary objective is to be able to manufacture construction material in space.
4Noah's CraftJust like Noah's Ark preventing people from the world-wide disaster, Noah's Craft helps humans be multi-planetary species. Also, it contains the curiosity for the infinite universe and the confidence we can realize our imagination one day.
4Minor EarthMinor Earth is specially designed for comfortable human life, recreated all the best conditions of the planet Earth. Created by inspiration, serving as inspiration. Inspiration of the inhabitants of the Minor Earth in their creative approach to daily life.
