The Dedicated Infrastructure and Architecture for Near-Earth Astronautics (DIANA) is an autonomously deployable lunar base concept for a long-duration crewed mission on the Moon's surface. It will be robotically constructed in proximity to the De Gerlache crater ridge on the lunar South pole. The base, which accommodates four astronauts with a planned 2030 arrival, enables scientific operations and local sorties for human and robotic exploration. Furthermore, its self-sustainability will increase over its lifespan. The base will be transported in a compacted form and expanded to a habitable volume by autonomous deployment after reaching the lunar surface. The multilevel base encompasses all possible habitation needs including, but not limited to, dedicated private and communal spaces, technical support systems and a greenhouse. To establish and operate the base, the following ...
