How do they think people would live in about 100 years on another planet? What would they take with them from Earth, and what would they want to see totally different?
The student teams have developed a conceptual vision of this city. In parallel they researched and worked on the environmental, technical and social challenges of getting to and being on Mars. Each team was asked to identify three major challenges and / or characteristics, based on their vision.
