Designing M.A.R.S. Tesseract-1: An ecologically sustainable all-vegan astronaut training facility

CDC Mini Stage
CDC
Offworld.Voyage is an astronaut training project focused on the design and development of self-contained ecologically sustainable all-vegan research facilities - intended for use in live immersive simulation missions that solve for interplanetary exploration as well as adaptation to the extremes of a rapidly changing biosphere on Earth.
M.A.R.S. Tesseract-1 is an astronaut training facility being developed by Offworld.Voyage, designed for use in Mars surface analog simulations - consisting of modular interconnected living structures including an enclosed green-hab science lab, fab lab and flow space. Research activities will include: • EVAs utilizing sim-spacesuits embedded with biosensors • On site cultivation of nutrient dense foods • Experiments in development of open source decentralized communications and coordination tools and protocols • Mission Support / Mission Control training • Geological analysis and mapping • Off-grid and autonomous power production • Exercises in extreme reduction of resource consumption • Coordinated decision making and collective action • Water purification and re-use • Composting and re-processing of organic waste • Creative on-site repair and recycling of all materials The inaugural mission is currently scheduled to occur in an isolated and remote desert location in late 2025. The project is co-founded by Mars Desert Research Station alumni Scott Beibin and Elizabeth Jane Cole.

If you are neurodivergent or looked into the topics ADHD and Autism this might be the session for you. Unsure? No worries. Curiosity is enough to participate. I'll bring some fidget toys, talk a little about stimming and accessibility for neurodivergent minds. Please bring your own topics, life-hacks and toys so we can learn from each other! *CN:* Attendees might want to raise topics that can be triggering. These can be discussed in smaller groups where everyone is okay with it.
