Mars Base Solar Chimney
thingiverse
The concept was to build a mars base around a solar chimney that would provide power. A solar chimney heats the ground underneath glass panels to produce a pressure difference at the bottom and top, it them extracts the energy via turbines in the base before exhausting the air from the top of the tower. Drones could use the exhaust as a thermal to quickly gain height, and an observation tower could control them from a greater distance. The living areas are in teal, it includes a garage for future missions outward. One of the green house areas can be easily converted to plant life, for oxygen and nourishment. I didn't see the entry time was Eastern time zone, but hey I made this so I might as well show it off.
