Microgravity Design Challenges in Space Architecture

Microgravity Design Challenges in Space Architecture
As humanity’s ambitions to explore and inhabit space grow, so do the complexities of designing for environments vastly different from Earth. Among these challenges, perhaps one of the most intriguing and demanding is designing for microgravity. In the vacuum of space, where gravitational forces are negligible, traditional principles of architecture must be reimagined to ensure functionality, safety, and comfort for space travelers.
