Wow, I really like this one.

It's just so... clean.  Even with a small amount of greeblies, the structure
is neat, yet industrial in a way.

I love the Martian terrain- the way your created tiny bumps and valleys
really convey the sense of soil.  I also like the little 'greenhouse.'  The
clear parts work really well, and reveal the plants nicely.  I echo Gil- any
interior pictures?

You have way too much orange, BTW.
