Towards the Moon Village Generation

The Moon Village Generation is the generation born into a world where humans have a continuous collaborative presence on the Moon! To this end, the Moon Village Association has formed the Towards the Moon Generation Project, a project focused on engaging students and young professionals on topics relating to the future of lunar exploration and the Moon Village.

Congratulations MVA Hackathon 2023 Winners

Congratulations to Team Biospatial – Project LEXAMUS for winning the MVA Hackathon 2023 which was the first ever hackathon to be held in the MVA Metaverse!

The Team consisted of Nicholas A Florio, Abhinav Krishnan, Jim J Seelan and Roxy Williams with Professional advisor Dr Mohan Muvvala and demonstrated excellent use of the innovative Metaverse space in a very short amount of time. The team presented an exploratory lunar surface robot with built-in AI functionality paralleling the current Artemis timeline.

The team will continue to work on developing the models in the MVA Metaverse space and we look forward to more evolutions of Project LEXAMUS!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

MVA Hackathon 2022

Picture the year 2045, the first human settlement on the Moon is on its way to create a home away from home. What are the likely geographies, places and locations for humans to call home our Moon? What is the makeup of the crew who buildup a lunar settlement? How will such a settlement evolve over time? Who will make it economically viable? What lunar resources might make our Moon valuable to our species? How much autonomy for Moon dwellers? What might lunar governance look like? What does the Earth-Moon Space highway look like? Do all rockets land on the surface in Moonports? Are Moonport/(s) operating in Lunar Orbit? How is the traffic being monitored, regulated and sustained? What other facilities might we encounter in cislunar and orbiting regimes? Crew safety is a prime concern. Crew are our most precious and fragile resource. Propose some ways to communicate and keep them safe in case of emergency or anomaly. Also consider ways to rescue and return them safely back to Earth, if the need arises.

MOONPORT-1

These are a few questions we need to consider to create the future we’d like to see. But in order to approach this mammoth design challenge, it is important to ask the right questions, think logically, think fast and find the core challenge/solution! And this is what the MVA Hackathon 2022 for MOONPORT-1 is all about!

We wrapped up the Moonport-1 Hackathon and would like to keep the challenge open for future hackathons to allow teams to work on it longer and present more diverse designs!

So if you are interested in networking and learning from our design teams, join our slack workspace.
