Lunar Regolith 3D Printer

Discipline: MAE

Advisor: Ranajay Ghosh

Lifting tons of material from earth to develop the moon is difficult and costly. This project aims to solve that problem by manufacturing using the most abundant material on the lunar surface: regolith. By extruding a regolith/binder slurry and sintering, we can additively manufacture regolith bricks and other structures. Want a cheap and quick way to build lunar structures? Look no further.
