SPACEBASE DESIGN
Complements and enhances
NASA, ESA and other
national space agency
programs to establish
permanent Lunar and Mars
bases in 2020’s and 2030’s.
INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT
Beyond inflexible factory
robotics to reconfigurable
modular machines & robots
for automated construction,
general-purpose automated
factories and teleoperated
equipment.
STEM EDUCATION
Teaching for the future via
3D productivity. Empowered
beyond ‘Climate Anxiety’ by
understanding biosphere &
technosphere as coupled
developmental generative
systems.

SURVIVE - Life Support Systems
Hazard protection and containment
systems with a life support system
within for people, animals & plants.
THRIVE - Regenerative Industry
Integrated planning & operation of
construction, maintenance, utilities,
transport & recycling automation
REVIVE - Natural Ecosystems
Regeneration of ecosystems from the
species within the survival systems and
accelerated natural recovery.
