A holistic approach to lunar settlements

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

This paper discusses the larger view on lunar settlement creation. Such an endeavor is exceeding complex, requiring the talents of all disciplines, from physiology to engineering to human factors. While narrow sub-problems can be tackled in isolation, any significant aspect of lunar settlement creation needs to be solved as a multi-disciplinary endeavor. And here multi-disciplinary means across classes of disciplines, for example, technology and psychology.
