Summary: | Space
exploration activities have long taken place to discover the shape of our solar
system and the way all of its components work together. The closest celestial
bodies to the Earth that are regarded by researchers as capable of becoming
colonies are Moon and Mars. One challenge for researchers is the mission of
developing permanent infrastructures on both Moon and Mars. The testing of
casting technology on both Moon and Mars has been done in relation with the
mission. The material resources on both Moon and Mars have been developed for
cement and casting materials. Since the space mission for human colony
development on both Moon and Mars is considered extraordinary, a
sociotechnological approach would be necessary in order to realize the
development. This approach will play its role in making people ready to accept
the advancement of sciences and technologies. |
