Team led by Michael Morris, in 2015 SEArch and Clouds AO with a team of subject matter experts, was chosen by NASA Centennial Challenges as the 1st place winner of the 3D Printed Habitat Challenge for their proposal, MARS ICE HOUSE in 2015.  In 2019,  working with Apis Cor, Search+  won 3 first places in the 5 phased NASA Centennial Challenge winning the best overall design with Mars X House.  

In addition to working with NASA  and Aerospace Corporations, as ongoing team members of NASA MSFC’s Moon to Mars Planetary Autonomous Construction Team ( MMPACT) produced a comprehensive schematic designs for The Moon - THE LUNAR LANTERN ( habitat) and  Landing Pads for Icon’s Project Olympus in 2020 currently in design development. 

Invited to give lectures and papers given at international architectural and scientific forums SEArch+ work has been exhibited and collected by leading museum’s around the globe.  THE LUNAR LANTERN video is currently premiering at the City X Venice Italian Virtual Pavilion as part of the 2021 Venice Architecture Biennale.
