The Houses on Mars are built to make it an artificial habitat for colonists. While houses on Earth have merely a temperature effect, on Mars it must provide:

  • a high air pressure
  • a completely different composition of air
  • temperature insulation to keep warmth inside.
  • protect from radiation
  • protect from meteorites

Houses should be connected to each other to allow people to move from one house to another without the need to wear a heavy space suit.
