Space Architecture and a Greener Earth: Building in Orbit to Protect Our Planet
Can Space Architecture Help Heal Earth? Humankind has long imagined turning space into a laboratory for better living back home. Proponents like space architect Ariel Ekblaw argue that the bottleneck isn’t the idea but the real estate: how to assemble and sustain large volumes of habitat in orbit. If we can build efficient, self‑sufficient structures…

NASA’s Glass Bubble Moon Habitats: Turning Lunar Dust into Self-Healing Homes
From Lunar Dust to Living Quarters: A Bold NASA Vision NASA is advancing a bold concept for life support on the Moon, aiming to transform locally sourced lunar soil into habitable structures. The plan centers on melting lunar glass found in regolith and blowing it into large, bubble-shaped domes that could serve as self-contained living…

Lunar Glass Bubbles: NASA’s Self-Healing Moon Homes from Dust
NASA’s Bold Plan: Glass Bubbles for Moon Habitats NASA is exploring a futuristic concept to house astronauts on the Moon using a resource that is already present on the lunar surface: lunar glass. The idea, championed by a private contractor called Skyeports, envisions large, transparent glass bubbles formed from melted lunar regolith. These self-contained habitats…

Lunar Glass Bubble Homes: NASA’s Bold Plan to Use Moon Dust for Habitats and Self-Healing Shields
Introduction: A bold leap for Moon habitats NASA is exploring a visionary approach to establishing human habitats on the Moon. By turning lunar soil, or regolith, into glass and then shaping it into bubble-like structures, scientists hope to create transparent, durable homes that can withstand the Moon’s harsh environment. This concept, spearheaded by Skyeports, blends…
