A steady-state model for first order of magnitude estimates of lunar base masses is presented. The main focus of the model is upon the derivation of initial and annual resupply mass estimates for a lunar base at certain development stages. These estimates are a function of several thousand input parameters and boundary conditions such as crew size, lunar base location, and environmental conditions, but also specific system masses, specific power requirements, and specific thermal loads. This integrated lunar base model indicates which systems and subsystems have the greatest mass impact on the overall base. Also, brief overviews of possible activties at a lunar base and of lunar development strategies are given.
