Will we be the first life living on Mars? We meet AI SpaceFactory Founder and CEO, David Malott, behind the NASA-recognised Mars habitat MARSHA. Mallot is an architect and self-professed space geek, who after spending years designing some of the world's tallest towers —three to be exact— turned his attention to the extraterrestrial. We chat about designing for the red planet, the possibility of interplanetary living, and why space exploration is critical to achieving quantum leaps in design and tech.
