Exploring life beyond the earth has been humankind’s most fancied indulgence for centuries now. From making the first spaceship to building moonbases, and now landing on our neighboring red planet- Mars, we have come a long way in discovering the universe. Additionally, leading space organizations such as NASA, ESA, and ISRO regularly affirm new findings, thereby helping us unveil the mysteries of the cosmos, layer by layer.
While sci-fi movies and books have tremendously helped us visualize that outworld, the excitement of witnessing it, in reality, is immeasurable. Further, the degradation of the earth’s environment due to climate change and the overwhelming population has created an urgency to look for other tenantable heavenly spheres. For this purpose, scientists, architects, geologists, and sociologists across the globe are working together for testing habitability beyond earth.
