Human settlements have suffered huge transformations through history. From the very first little villages next to rivers or materials to the 21st century ultra high density modern metropolis, cities have evolved in such an amazing way that nowadays both resources and space are scarce. Due to this we have asked ourselves some questions:
# What is the purpose of uncontrolled urban sprawl?
# Does the growth of the cities have any limit?
# If this growth is not reducing, is it possible to look for alternative models of colonization?
# Can this lead us to look into other planets?
The “spatial era” started trying to send a human mission to the
Moon. Now, 30 years after, the scientific programmes are focusing to
land on Mars. Words as colony, settlement or martian are common to
us. Could we imagine that way? How will be the rockets have developed
to that moment? Based on the design and size evolution of the air and
space transport we could approach to the next gen: A rocket city, a
visiting society to another planet. Moving to Mars needs to solve the transporting and the construction
system to build a new home for the humanity. However, The Visitor,
presents a balance where the vehicle and the living facilities are
together, just like a skycrapper with engine motors. The whole
structure works as a building containing a colony.The
building-vehicle provides energy and supplies as a part of the living
system.
