Built for the Whiteout

Modular by necessity, not by choice
Every habitat unit ships in a standard container and locks to the hydraulic ski-frame in under six hours.
Redundant power, always running
Three independent generator banks ensure no single failure drops below minus 40 degrees tolerance.
Elevated above the annual drift
Hydraulic legs raise living quarters 4 metres above snow accumulation, adjustable each austral season.
Signal, not spectacle
A single red social module anchors crew morale across the white expanse, visible at 2 km in flat polar light.
