Aegis Station

Executive Summary The Aegis Station Project proposes building humanity’s first scalable orbital city, assembled in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), with radiation shielding sourced from lunar ice mining. By minimizing mass lifted from Earth and exploiting in-situ lunar resources, Aegis becomes a sustainable stepping-stone to Mars, the asteroid belt, and beyond. The station's modular, expandable design creates artificial gravity via rotation, shields crews from cosmic radiation, and serves as a logistics and research hub for the Solar System.

Abstract

Executive Summary The Aegis Station Project proposes building humanity’s first scalable orbital city, assembled in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), with radiation shielding sourced from lunar ice mining. By minimizing mass lifted from Earth and exploiting in-situ lunar resources, Aegis becomes a sustainable stepping-stone to Mars, the asteroid belt, and beyond. The station's modular, expandable design creates artificial gravity via rotation, shields crews from cosmic radiation, and serves as a logistics and research hub for the Solar System.
