“Humanity is now moving from the era of 'staying' in space to the era of 'living' on the Moon and Mars,” the Kyoto University says, announcing a structure that will establish gravity in space
“Humanity is now moving from the era of 'staying' in space to the era of 'living' on the Moon and Mars,” the Kyoto University’s Human Spaceology Center writes in a, announcing their project with major construction firm Kajima to design an artificial gravity facility in space.
Astronauts also struggle with their blood pressure at the risk of fainting, and experience changes in sensorimotor skills such as balance and hand-eye coordination due to trouble in adjusting in between different gravity fields. The key element of the plan is constructing “artificial gravity living facilities” to become an infrastructure for life in space. These facilities are planned to be built on the Moon and Mars, respectively called LunarGlass and MarsGlass.
That is “the core technology for human space exploration,” says the Kyoto University, while also suggesting that the prospect of future generations to be born in space make this technology essential for sustaining human life in space. The Earth-like conditions provided by the facilities would also enable residents to go back to Earth “at any time” with minimal side effects.Two other pillars of the plan are transferring natural capital to space and establishing an interplanetary transportation system.
Also predicting that people will travel for business and tourism in a future space colony, the researchers have contemplated the need for an interplanetary transportation system which will keep gravity constant, minimising the adverse effects of microgravity during long-distance travel.
