The project objective is to develop a modular habitat that can withstand long-duration missions to the Moon and Mars. The habitat will be optimized for packaging and assembly through a hybrid approach, utilizing a combination of an inflatable pressure vessel and rigid exterior structure. Key design goals include maintaining crew safety through radiation and thermal protection, maximizing mass and packaging efficiency for launch, and ensuring compliance with NASA's Artemis and Mars mission standards.
