Lava tube mission in Sicily
On Robotic Building lab’s initiative and with support from TU Delft Moonshot, TU Delft Robotic and Space Institutes, and ESA, a team of PhD and MSc students have robotically mapped fragments of lava tubes in Sicily as part of the Rhizome and Lunar Architecture and Infrastructure projects.
On Nov. 11 Henriette Bier lectures and meets with researchers at AUIC and the dean at DS PoliMi to explore potential synergies for Extra-/ terrestrial Architecture.
Extra-/ terrestrial Architecture is concerned with the development of design to construction approaches by transferring advanced technologies from terrestrial to extraterrestrial applications and vice versa. The focus is on the integration of advanced computational design with robotic techniques in order to produce highly performative architectural formations operating in a range of extreme to moderate environments. This requires that the design is directly linked to building production and operation relying on Design-to-Robotic-Production-Assembly & -Operation methods developed in collaboration with experts from computer, robotic, and material sciences in the Robotic Building lab.
