SpaceHouse
The idea of designing a 'SpaceHouse' for use on Earth was actually born
five years ago, just after the large earthquake in Izmit, Turkey in
1999. “We started wondering whether some of our advanced technologies
developed for space exploitation could provide completely earthquake-safe
housing", says Fritz Gampe, Senior Technology Transfer Officer in ESA's
Technology Transfer Programme (TTP).
