Lunar Habitation Science Opportunities and Constraints

NASA and its international and commercial partners are assessing new habitation concepts for Artemis missions to the Moon and Mars. The functional needs of such habitats will increase as missions progress across the Human Lunar Return (HLR), Foundational Exploration (FE) and Sustained Lunar Evolution (SLE) architectural
segments. These increasing needs will be met with scalable increases in volume, power, and larger crew sizes over longer mission durations which will provide numerous scientific and exploration opportunities.
