Designing the Roof and Envelope of a Metro station in the fictional Movie Avatar

 

Avatar                                     
In the 2009 science fiction film Avatar, director James Cameron
conceived a fictional universe in which humans seek to mine unobtanium
on the fictional exoplanetary moon, Pandora. The Earth-like moon is
inhabited by a sapient indigenous humanoid species called the Na'vi, and
varied fauna and flora. Resources Development Administration (RDA)
scientists, administrators, recruits, support, and security personnel
travel to Pandora in the 22nd century to discover this lush world which
is inhabited by many lifeforms including the human-like Na'vi. The clan
with which the humans have contact in the film "[lives] in a giant tree
that sits on a vast store of a mineral called unobtanium, which humans
want as an energy supply". The Pandoran biosphere teems with a
biodiversity of bioluminescent species ranging from hexapod animals to
exotic fauna and flora. The Pandoran ecology forms a vast neural network
spanning the entire planetary surface into which the Na'vi and other
creatures can connect. The strength of this collective consciousness is
powerfully illustrated when the human invaders are defeated in battle by
the Pandoran ecology, after the resolute Na'vi were nearly defeated.

PANDORA
Location: A moon of planet Polyphemus, a gas giant planet orbiting the star Alpha Centauri A, roughly 4.4 light years away.

ammonia, methane, and hydrogen sulphide.
