Chinese scientists have made significant strides in developing building materials for the construction of a future lunar base. Researchers at Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST ...

The earthling’s guide to building a Moon base One-armed robots are being trained in lunar construction ...

At the University of Central Florida’s Exolith Lab, Dr. Phil Metzger and other university researchers have developed a ...

Can a future base on the Moon being constructed using only lunar resources like lunar regolith? This is what a recent review paper published in Progress in Aerospace Sciences hopes to address as a ...

NASA and its partners in the Artemis program want to find sustainable ways of building astronaut bases on the moon. An ISS experiment is investigating how.

The European Space Agency created 3D-printed bricks inspired by LEGO made from 4.5-billion-year-old meteorite dust, a significant step toward lunar construction.

Once returned to Earth and analyzed by NASA experts, the experiment could form the building blocks for the construction of a new permanent base on the Moon, which is NASA's long-term goal with the ...

The significance of lunar base construction (LBC) represents our commitments to the long-term survival and prosperity of humanity.

However, lunar soil samples are too rare and valuable to turn into experimental building materials. Without access to the Moon, the HUST team recreated five types of lunar soil in the lab.

Lunar exploration equipment at any future lunar base is in danger from debris blasted toward it by subsequent lunar landers. This danger isn't just theoretical—Surveyor III was a lander during ...
