A review is conducted on the habitability of a module to accommodate the short-time (ten sunlit days, maximum 15 days) stay of three crews at manned lunar surface sites to be used for various experiments and observations. Prerequisites for review are: (1) constructed in around 2010; (2) stay time is ten sunlit days and 15 days at the maximum; (3) constructed at the east side of equator facing at the earth; (4) lunar landing weight per one flight is within ten tons; (5) operation for three years twice per year; (6) consumed materials (water, oxygen, foods, etc.) are expendable; and (7) every crew is given one room. Pressurized module, sizings (constraints by launch vehicles dimensions, ceiling height for expected body statures of white race and the floor spaces and volumes of rooms of the pressurized module), layout, weights and electric power of room spaces of the living module are outlined. Configurations of overall lunar surface sites and living modules are conceptually displayed in drawings.
