An upcoming city in the UAE desert will simulate the environment of Mars. The project is part of the UAE’s Mars 2117 strategy, which aims to build a settlement on Mars in the next 100 years.
The Mars science city is a 1.9-million-square-foot enclosed city which is intended to simulate living on the surface of Mars.
The city will be made up of a series of futuristic domes, whose walls will be 3D-printed using Emirati desert sand.
Laboratories for food, energy and water will simulate the terrain and conditions on Mars using heat and radiation insulation as well as 3D-printing technology.
