Schematic view of the Incubator with all relevant elements. Functional modules (e.g. for air management) are contained (air-tight) within module shells. For exchange of equipment they can be extended into maintenance halls. An overarching public engagement area allows view of major operations, e.g. in the dome. The outside is connected via air-locks to maintain a closed-loop. An EVA dome allows simulation of “on surface” operations, an analogue test site links the operation to e.g. robotic experiments
