3 unusual facts about Building printing


Building printing

It is also a potential way of building extraterrestrial structures on the Moon or other planets where environmental conditions are less conducive to human labor-intensive building practices.

Potential applications of this technology include constructing lunar structures of a material that could consist of up to 90-percent lunar material with only ten percent of the material requiring transport from Earth.

The printing of buildings has been proposed as a particularly useful technology for constructing off-Earth habitats, such as Lunar habitats on the Moon.
