EarthMoonMars Village Worldwide Activities
Abstract
We give an update of Moon Village (MV) and MoonMars activities, with emphasis on events that took place in 2017 and 2018. The Moon Village is an open concept proposed with the goal of a sustainable human and robotic presence on the lunar surface as an ensemble where multiple users can carry out multiple activities. [1-3] .Why a Moon Village? Multiple goals of the Moon Village include planetary science, life sciences, astronomy, fundamental research, resources utilisation, human spaceflight, peaceful cooperation, economical development, inspiration, training and capacity building.Moon Village 2017 international events:- Global Space Congress Abu Dhabi UAE 30 Jan-1 Feb- UN COPUOS Action team on Exploration 5-7 Feb 2017- UN COSPAR explo workshop Vienna 25 April, 22 May- European Lunar Symposium & New Views of Moon , Muenster 2-4 May (HH, CN)- ISDC ST Louis (with ESA DG J.

The EarthMoonMars Village will rely both on automatic, robotic and human-tendered structures to achieve sustainable surface operations serving multiple purposes on an open-architecture basis.*AcknowledgementsWe thank Prof J.
