Space oddity

Article Abstract:

Diana Cochrane and Alex Mowat of Urban Salon presented their project on a manned space flight to Mars at the Architectures Foundation. The idea was to send an unmanned craft powered by solar sail that would unfurl on landing, so that the manned mission can arrive later in a faster, more conventional liquid methane-boostered spacecraft to find the space station already self-assembled.
