Introduction: Space Architecture as a Discipline -- Building and Planning -- Different Educational Systems and Approaches -- Case Studies and examples -- Conclusions -- Appendices.

This book considers two key educational tools for future generations of professionals with a space architecture background in the 21st century: (1) introducing the discipline of space architecture into the space system engineering curricula; and (2) developing space architecture as a distinct, complete training curriculum.� Professionals educated this way will help shift focus from solely engineering-driven transportation systems and zsortiey missions towards permanent off-world human presence. The architectural training teaches young professionals to operate at all scales from the zoverall picturey down to the smallest details, to provide directive intention�not just analysis�to design opportunities, to address the relationship between human behavior and the built environment, and to interact with many diverse fields and disciplines throughout the project lifecycle.�This book will benefit individuals and organizations responsible for planning transportation and habitat systems in space, while also providing detailed information on work and design processes for architects and engineers.
