Idea Lunar architecture

[fsci123]

OK i have been watching some documents and stuff...
AND i have been exploring the possiblities of a lunar base and the vehicles needed for it... AKA lunar-architecture...
I ACTUALY made a group for it just look at my groups...

I'd certainly be interested.

If you check out the link in my sig I recently started working on building a library of simple meshes to facilitate the construction of more realistic Lunar colonies.

Domes, Atnennas, Inflatable HABs etc...

Given current state of technology, there are high chances that above-the-ground buildings will be heavily covered by regolith blocks, and most construction actually done underground (to get away from meteorites and cosmic rays).

Looking at the scarred lunar surface, the idea of living in a glass dome never appealed to me.

Drilling a base into a crater wall has always been a popular option...

You may find THIS thread useful, it is a discussion about a lunar base I have on a very very very back burner. There are lots of useful contributions from orbinatuts.

When i first read the title the first thing i thought was this:

I put it on the moon for a while for AMSO when i first started orbiter XD. But more complex buildings might be interesting thought........

That's what the lunar base looks like after the first millennium (in reality more like 50 years, though).
