Welcome to the first episode of Everyday Mars, a new monthly series from Aspiring Martians! This week, host Joe Sweeney sits down with Brent Sherwood, a leading expert in space architecture and development. With an impressive career spanning senior roles at Boeing and Blue Origin, Brent has spent decades designing the future of human life in space.
Together, they explore what it will take to build a city of 1 million people on Mars. From Martian igloos to gothic cathedrals, the six key tenets of space architecture, and why cities on the Red Planet will resemble New York City more than the French countryside, Brent shares his fascinating vision for humanity’s future on Mars. They also discuss how transforming Mars will inevitably transform us as humans.
