Design Gateway Cargo Packing and Storing

This research I did from NASA Challenge _ Lunar Gateway Cargo Packing and Storing. Now I try to write a process I created and also improve its design.

First, this sketch is how it works. Before we land on a new planet, we need a gateway flying around that planet with all the necessary cargo. The goal of this design is to handle 160 CTBs(*) (Loaded Bag Mass 4963.5kg) and have a crew path size of 0.8x1.1m.

Most of the designs need simple operation, meaning manual but in some cases I think we need a backup plan for a fully automated gateway like just for landing robots. That's why I challenged myself to design a fully automated option.

*: CTBs mean Cargo transfer bags.
