The idea of robots, swarms of which can dig underground settlements on Mars, is proposed
A team of researchers from the Delft University of Technology has proposed a plan to build residential settlements in the depths of Mars. For excavations, scientists suggest using swarms of robots. Underground settlements, according to scientists, will protect people from micrometeorites, radiation and other potential hazards.
The settlement process will involve excavating the regolith and printing elements of the new habitat on a 3D printer. For the construction on Mars, the university's robotics laboratory chose the shape of a spiral going deep into the Earth. This design will be stable, safe and will take up a minimum of space.
The researchers have only prepared a demonstration of the technology so far; additional work and funding is required for the idea to become the concept of a real mission. The university believes that if successful, robot swarms and 3D-printed habitats will play a key role in the development of the concept of an underground city on Mars.
