This chapter discusses whether and how the existing rules of international space law can be applied to regulate the activity of space resource exploitation, with a focus on in-situ resource utilization. As such, the chapter aims to establish how natural resources should be defined in the context of space law, how the activity of exploitation compares ...

Special Issue on In Situ Resource Utilization
Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2013This special issue on in situ resource utilization (ISRU) was borne from the reality that in order for humanity to evolve into a spacefaring civilization, it will need to be able to gather, process, and use materials at the site where explorations are made and settlements are planted.

Photovoltaics Using In Situ Resource Utilization for HEDS
Space 98, 1998One of the most important elements of a human planetary base is power production. Lunar data make it clear that several types of solar-to-electric converters can be manufactured on the Moon. Materials research and processing demonstrations are suggested that can be carried out on Earth, the Space Transportation System (STS), the International Space ...

Establishing Standards for Lunar In Situ Resource Utilization Structural Materials
AIAA JournalLunar structures will be exposed to one of the most extreme environments that have ever been considered for human settlements. In situ, regolith-based materials are being proposed for construction on the moon, offering the benefit of reducing the cost of

Ceres and In Situ Resource Utilization
2015Although Mars is the most frequently cited destination for manned missions, Ceres, with its shallow gravity well and enormous water resources, may be even a more interesting site, and one that becomes reachable via electric propulsion. This chapter describes a roundtrip mission to the Ceresian environment, and also explores the potential for in situ ...

For in-situ resource utilization (ISRU), the cost-mass conundrum needs to be solved, before any other formidable challenges may be tackled. Technologies may need to be conceptualised from first principals, rather than taking the most advanced technology ...

Solar Thermal Technology for In-Situ Resource Utilization
3rd International Energy Conversion Engineering Conference, 2005*† ‡ In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) processes require thermal energy at various temperatures. Chemical recovery process (pyrolysis, gas-solid reactions, gas-liquid or threephase reactions and desorption) requires thermal energy at temperatures from 1000 K to 2500 K. Manufacturing processes (hot liquid processing, sinter forming, composite forming,

Plasma‐Assisted Nitrogen Fixation for Mars: A Simulation Study on in Situ Resource Utilization
Plasma Processes and PolymersThis study explores nitrogen fixation in the Martian atmosphere using plasma technology. By combining microwave and dielectric barrier discharges (DBD), nitrogen was converted into water‐soluble nitrogen fertilizer (N₂O₅) for agriculture. Despite the low
