3D-Printing Lunar Bricks for Space Construction
Sector: Education • Location: College Station and Houston, Texas, United States
Source: Texas A&M Today
Texas A&M University researchers, including Dr. Patrick Suermann, are developing technologies for building structures on the Moon and Mars using local materials like lunar regolith. This includes 3D-printing lunar bricks to enable construction in zero gravity environments, which can also be applied to improve construction efficiency and sustainability on Earth.
