3D printing a Moon base!

Featured Replies

So moon bases will not be white, they might be dog poo brown?  Well, that destroys all of my childhood sci-fi dreams of what lunar living would look like.🤣  Interesting technology and could certainly make lunar living a possibility. 

My computer: ABS Gladiator Gaming PC featuring an Intel 10700F CPU, EVGA CLC-240 AIO cooler (dead fans replaced with Noctua fans), Asus Tuf Gaming B460M Plus motherboard, 16GB DDR4-3000 RAM, 1 TB NVMe SSD, EVGA RTX3070 FTW3 video card, dead EVGA 750 watt power supply replaced with Antec 900 watt PSU.

Indeed. But that VMX laser printing looks pretty impressive. You just burn the regolith into solidity layer by layer. 

It's when you see tech like this that the prospect of a full scale Moon base becomes easier.
