We are living in an exciting,yet challenging,time: Our generation might see astronauts walking again on the lunar surface. A long journey consists of many little steps. The objective of EUROHAB is ta bridge the close future ta a long-term on the lunar surface. We developed a concept of an inflatable habitat based on the European Large Logistics Lander (E3L). Such landers couId be sent ta the lunar surface in parallel ta the other missions ta support a crew. Stepwise such landers couId build up a network of small habitats and consequently lead ta a first Lunar Village.
