"Space Architecture is the theory and practice of designing and building inhabited environments in outer space. It integrates the creation and enhancement of the built environment and is based on engineering, but also involves diverse disciplines such as physiology, psychology, and sociology. The field borrows from various forms of architecture to ensure humans can live and work in space, encompassing the design of space-related facilities, habitats, and vehicles. The rise of this field was driven by the need to extend space mission durations and address astronauts' needs"-- Provided by publisher.
