Description: | Returning to the Moon and establishing a permanent human presence is the next step in human space exploration. This necessitates the development of lunar infrastructure capable of sustaining a permanent human presence. This team presents a supporting framework for rapid, cost-efficient, and supporting construction of a permanent and modular lunar base within the scope of what is technically feasible today in space law paradigms. |
