Concept

Research questions:

1. How best to support long-term human activities during scientific exploration and settlement on other planetary bodies such as the Moon and Mars, with hostile and extreme environments?
2. How best to utilise local resources on other planetary bodies for construction purposes?
3. How best to use additive manufacturing (AM, a.k.a. 3D Printing) to modify conventional construction processes for practical use on other planetary bodies such as the Moon and Mars?
4. How can the knowledge and expertise gained through the proposed research on extra- terrestrial construction processes contribute to enhancing the quality of life on Earth and to benefit the Built Environment and Space industry?
