The crew cabins (marked in orange) are placed at the very top of the SHM – see Figure 4-21.<br />

One rationale for that is the closeness to the escape tunnel to the MEV. While resting, the<br />

crewmembers are able to observe the whole habitat, with the possibility of creating a private<br />

zone by cocooning themselves. Also the protection against radiation is better here, because the<br />

crew quarters are right underneath the MAV with its propulsion tanks.
