Welcome to Project Equinox! Introducing to the residents of earth the first ever self sustaining habitable building that will make colonization on Plant Howler possible. Until now humans had to face the harsh reality planet Howler presented which were its unstable power conditions, foreign soil & terrain and lack of power generation but no longer are these extreme conditions an issue. As Equinox tower has the self production capabilities of all the elements which provinds us with a sustainable solution ultimately able to provide an efficient solution for the colonization of planet Howler!
Learn about the latest advances in sustainabile technologies which are all incorparated in the Equinox Tower, allowing for the self production of all the elements!
Planet Howler recives high levels of perception every 4 days consistently throughout the year, which we have grasped to create an efficient water solution.
Various areas experience medium to high wind speeds which is the reason why we have windturbines.
Photocoltaic Panels are far superior to solar panels being 5% more efficient in enegry convertion while being the same cost and weight. The additional efficiency is crucial to maintaining a self-sustaining ecosystem on planet Howler
Equinox tower establishes the benchmark for the most sustainable building design, achieving the Platinum LEED and Outstanding BREEAM accreditation, which is the most rigorous standards for sustainable design.
These windows allow for 70% of the day to pass without using any artificial light. Triple glazed windows help capture sunlight efficiently and make it so that no artificial lights are used for majority of the day.
This system will allow us to monitor the buildings effiency and sustainability which include viewing the water and energy consumption live.
Team Equinox has not only identified but also addressed and came up with the ideal sustainable solution to the Earth's dystopian futuristic society.
Using the design concepts of platinum LEED building design and glued laminated timber, Equinox Tower is the most theoretically sound and feasible solution for the colonization of planet Howler.
The technology that allows for the self-production of the elements imbeded in Equinox are the most unique sustainable advancements made to date. The creative techniques help fully sustain the residents and the tower itself, which are the self production of water, heat, power, and weather.
We are able to convey and show the tangible proof that our tower provides, proving the innovation and functions that we are able to address. Not only does our tower function effectively in a completely new environment, but it is completely self-sustainable! This level of vision and execution successfully communicates the innovational aspect of our project.
Important events to look out for by Team Equinox!
This is an event you don't want to miss! On March 19, 2080, we will be launching the first batch of trained astronauts to planet Howler and from there, we will introduce a self-sustaining ecosystem on a foreign planet for the first time.
To mark 6 months since the first launch, we will be sending a second batch of humans! However, this time the citizens will be common everyday people and not trained astronauts if things go as planned.
If everything goes according to plan, we will begin expansion on this date. After over a year of living and adjusting on planet Howler, we can begin duplicating the Equinox Tower and expanding until we have the resources to sustain a full city.
