So cool! Makes me wish that I were an astronaut, or even just a colonist. [:)]

Thanks friends... [:)]

@Aeowyn Why not the two ?


1920 x 1080 in Q4 without R1.3.1

All modules are ready and secure :
Well positioned,
Brakes are ON,
Feet are anchored,
The storm surge cables are OK.

Chief joined the two astronauts who go up the main structure of the solar module. [:)]

Astronauts must be prepare the Matmod for the rovers for another crew and hardware.
For this, they install the ramps.

First rule on Mars: Never go out alone !

[AeowynFraser]

"Why not both?" Well, for starters I think they would have a weight limit per person and I more then well would exceed it. [:(]

Rover One is finished, batteries are full...
Quick, go to MRV !

With its 4 cables, the MRV has not afraid of big tempests.
The pilot inspects MRV before to put it in sleeping.
The eight solar panels will give energy to MRV.

Half of crew is going to grow up the main solar module.

They served as a roof for laboratories or warehouses.
The astronauts were helped by 'the lifting module' also called crane.

The External walls have been made with martian sand.
The central building has an air lock and is in communication with all five other buildings.
