Simulated moon dust turned into LEGO-like blocks for settlements
Permanent structures on the moon could start with something already there: lunar dust. New research from the University of Arkansas shows that pure regolith, the loose material that covers the moon, could be 3D-printed into LEGO-like bricks. Using it for construction could reduce what NASA needs to send from Earth as it works toward future lunar settlements.
