This will be our 4th Annual Summer Workshop and our 6th Mars City general Workshop we include our AR & VR Workshops. We aim to continue our previous experiences to learn about Mars in an authentic way; Through designing and developing selected concepts from the Mars City Design Challenges 2019, our Marschitect group will have some fun space science retreat experiences, buiding the skill to collaborate with international multi-disciplinary creatives to find the solutions and technology supporting the human mission to Mars. Our previous workshop participants graduated with new skills, some are able to intern for their favorite pioneering space companies!
PowerLab Workshop 2019 subject focus is the Human centered design for Space (Becoming a Multi-planetary Species);
<UL>
<LI>What is "Marschitecture"</LI>
<LI>What it is to become a multi-planetary species: Study about Human Reproduction in lower Gravity.</LI>
<LI>Some experiments on the future sustainable lifestyle when away from our home planet,</LI>
<LI>The science behind our health and wellness, and the challenges occuring during a long duration travel,</LI>
<LI>Our microgut flora in the microgravity </LI>
<LI>Study about the red planet conditions may inspire some breakthroughs to our human body design improvements.</LI>
</UL>

*1 
‘It’s a small step for a baby, but a giant baby step for mankind’
Missions planned for human conception and childbirth in space by:
   - Dr. Egbert Edelbroek, CEO & Founder SpaceBorn United - 
 
Becoming a multi-planetary species also requires learning how to reproduce in space. SpaceBorn United
researches the conditions for this and translate the outcomes into a step by step missions program and
the required biomedical equipment.
Dr. Edelbroek explains the different steps of the roadmap towards human space reproduction and how
these are implemented into space missions and equipment. He will reveal how recent technical and medical
breakthroughs strongly accelerate the enabling of human conception, embryo development and childbirth in
space. In addition, the following questions will be answered:
<UL>
<LI>How to deal with the Mars gravity level regarding conception and healthy embryo development?</LI>
<LI>What related challenge awaits the (LEO) Space Tourism sector and how can it be addressed?</LI>
<LI>How will the oncology- and IVF sector on Earth benefit from SpaceBorn United’s research?</LI>
<LI>What key ethical, legal and geopolitical implications do the missions have? </LI>
<LI>How will life science developments (e.g. CRISPR-Cas, artificial wombs) affect future reproduction?  </LI>
</UL>
