Space Habitation

Space Habitation refers to the study and design of living environments for humans in space, particularly in settings such as spacecraft, space stations, or on other celestial bodies like the Moon or Mars. It encompasses various aspects including architecture, life support systems, resource management, and psychological factors that affect human well-being in space. The goal of space habitation is to create sustainable, safe, and comfortable living conditions for astronauts during missions that can last from weeks to years. This involves addressing challenges such as radiation exposure, microgravity effects on the body, limited resources, and the isolation of living in an extraterrestrial environment. Effective space habitation is crucial for the success of long-term human exploration and potential colonization of other planets.
