Open Architecture for Settlement
Project Contributors: Angeliki Kapoglou, Morgan Martinez, Mehak Sarang, Chelsea RobinsonWorking to accelerate lunar development through open-source architectures and collaborative innovation.
Open Lunar Impact
This project promotes collaborative development of lunar settlement through open architecture principles.
About the Project
Creating an open, shared architecture for lunar settlement by establishing common core components, protocols, and standards that any organization can freely use and implement. The project aims to accelerate lunar development through strategic transparency and cooperation rather than siloed efforts.
About the Need
Efficiency: Avoid duplicating efforts on core infrastructure challenges
Accessibility: Enable smaller organizations to participate in lunar development
Trust: Build confidence through transparency and shared standards
Sustainability: Create foundation for long-term lunar presence
Collaboration: Foster cooperation while maintaining healthy competition
About the Solution
Open Information: Shared knowledge base with controlled access
Open Architecture: Published designs and specifications for core components
Open Execution: Implementation available to all participating groups
Open Licensing: Free licensing of core architectural elements
Core Support Activities:
Hosting and maintaining the open architecture
Facilitating development workshops
Providing grants for open architecture projects
Creating dedicated spaces for knowledge sharing
Supporting research and publication of architectural standards
