This page shows a typical settlement and includes links to Marspedia pages about the various settlement elements and properties.
Contents
Facilities
Storage
At the top of the colony plan you find a water storage tank, that feeds a water treatment facility.
Lodging
Three connecting modules link to buried habitats, using martian regolith for radiation protection
Greenhouses
Three greenhouses produce food, but also do some atmospheric processing.
Public spaces
A large dome serves a a public space
Power
Power is provided by photovoltaic power arrays. Down to the right a nuclear reactor provide power during the night of if a dust storm blocks the light for the photovoltaics
Manufacturing
A Manufacturing area processes in situ materials. Minerals are used to create construction materials; atmospheric CO2 and Water ice to create propellant.
A wastewater treatment plant takes in water from the settlement and the industrial processes and cleans it for re use.
Spaceport
A spaceport provide a prepared surface for visiting ships to land on.
Roads
Roads lint the various areas of the settlement together.
Mining
Water ice and minerals are mined from the martian surface.
