Yeah man also look up project Olympus, NASA is serious about this and it is the team that made the Xhouse and a commercial print construction company teaming up with NASA funding.

1) What is Hercules? Is it a stand-in for Starship?
>yes it is
2) Damn that thing is big. I find it hard to believe we’d build something like that until we already have a bunch of stuff on Mars’ surface anyways.
With printing it wouldn't be very tough
3) The design is great. It looks cool and is functional too.
I think so too.
4) Why are the habs so far apart from each other? Wouldn’t you want them to be connected by tunnels or something?
Most likely yes but that is probably for the aesthetic as it was for a competition.
5) I like the design but I hope they’d eventually have versions just for habitation or storage and whatnot one day. I get why there’s different rooms but the entire time I was thinking “man you can put like 100 people in there”
yeah man I think it'll look different than that anyway but its a good start. Glad someone is finally interested.
