Ceres Umbrella Mining City

Asteroid mining is not only necessary to supplement the limited resources on earth from other celestial bodies, but also for human migration to the moon and Mars, and even for the expansion to deep space. We believe that the coexistence and cooperation between robots and humans is essential for such asteroid mining. Therefore, we have designed a mining facil

Would the emotional resonance — and goal to inspire exploration — have been different if a SpaceX capsule was orbiting a distant world (Mars, Saturn, etc.) instead of a very familiar blue Earth?

This image is very similar to other views of the exterior of the SpaceX spacecraft. It doesn't deliver a new perspective or point to new possibilities for space travel.

The exploration of 2D-3D shapes was an interesting explorative exercise. But, even with an understanding of the themes in the brief, I couldn’t discern what this graphic design was trying to communicate (beyond a decorative outcome).

The view from inside the spacecraft is original and poetic. It provides a "point of view" from a potential space traveler.

This concept is both exciting and confusing in spots. I can't follow the progression of your sheets but generally like everything I see - perhaps a bit more clarity in the visual narrative and evolution from concept to final design.

Emergence

Year 2070, location- Deep space Lurking into the space, traveling from planet to planet, and having a job as an asteroid miner is the new normal. Having colonies in space, extracting resources to build new ones is now a space culture. All of this because humanity took a leap in 2032...

My visceral response to this graphic design was positive due to its immersive detail and decorative skill. But, even with an understanding of the themes in the brief, I wasn't sure what the driving message was.

This project presents current developments in space exploration in relation to the history of science and the long-term goal of human beings to make sense of the universe. I appreciate the central image, which is very groovy, cosmic, and future-oriented, and its placement within a framework of scientific inquiry. The graphic is well organized, it rewards the reader with many fascinating details, and it reflects deep research and engagement with the subject matter.

You did a wonderful job of placing us in an experience. Graphically compelling however, I'm curious about the final design. How does it work structurally?
