contribution "Human Space Mission Simulators" by LSG members Susmita Mohanty, Stephen Ransom and Barbara Imhof amongst Sue Fairburn and Andreas Vogler in the book
Out of This World: The New Field of Space Architecture > more
Written by the global network of practicing space architects, the book introduces a wealth of ideas and images explaining how humans live in space now, and how they may do so in the near and distant future. It describes the governing constraints of the hostile space environment, outlines key issues involved in designing orbital and planet-surface architecture, surveys the most advanced space architecture of today, and proposes far-ranging designs for an inspiring future. It also addresses earth-based space architecture: space analogue and mission support facilities, and terrestrial uses of space technology.

"The innovation of inflatable space habitats"
Barbara Imhof - LIQUIFER interviews
Marcio Nebbiolo, engineer at Thales Alenia Space in Torino, Italy about his companies' latest innovative project: the inflatable habitat

An example of hypothesis of manned Inflatable Space Module, is given by the NASA TransHab program in which Alenia Spazio was involved from 1998 to 2000 as part of the Italian Space Agency (ASI) team.
This was an Inflatable Module with a central structural core which was foreseen as a habitation module to be attached to the ISS Node3 and also to act in a very next future as TRANSFER VEHICLE for a Mars exploration mission.
Alenia Spazio is currently involved as Prime Contractor in the ESA study “Inflatable Habitat” that is strongly focused on the “habitat” aspects and on the boarded life support systems without however overlooking the inflatable technology issues.
During the Inflatable Habitat study several concepts for the inflatable modules are being investigated in relation with different mission scenarios and with different degree of packaging not only for the inflatable part but also for the structural core.

Regarding space exploration and space travel humankind is standing at the same point as ever since more than 30 years. Apollo and the moonlandings were part of a large political space race and are regarded as scientific achievement. Everything else since then is rated as "earthly matter".
