| Description: | The project studies the feasibility of a business case for a private Mars settlement, established before 2030 with only private funding. The intention is to show the other extreme of Mars architectures: fully private funding, and very time constrained. The report summarizes the extensive literature review on Mars human mission proposals, available technologies, and possible sources of revenue for the project. It then defines a possible minimal mission architecture for a Mars settlement with a first crewed landing before 2030, identifying technical and business constraints, and creating a development roadmap. A cost estimation for the project is also provided. |
