The report states that the 3D printer will use rock chips and concrete made of mineral pieces from the upper layer of the moon pit surface. The report quoted NASA’s Director of Technology maturity Nikki Verkhizer that we are at a decisive turn and looks like dreams in some ways.
NASA is partnered with universities and private companies for Moon Mission. Verkhizer said that we have met all the people in the right time. I think we will reach our goal. If we develop our abilities, this work can be made possible.
NASA plans to send a 3D printer on the moon next year. It is currently being tested. If everything goes well, it will be dispatched in February. NASA has prepared the Artemis mission for the moon. Its first part has been successful. Now astronauts will be sent to the moon circle through the Artemis 2 mission. This mission may also be launched next year.
The mission will include four astronauts. All these will go to the moon, but will not land there. Artemis 3 mission will be dispatched to take a human to the moon, which can fly in the years 2025 or 2026.
