Concentrated Solar Driven In-situ Resource Utilization for Lunar Exploration

, 2021
In-situ resource utilization (ISRU) of lunar regolith is examined using concentrated solar irradiation to carry out thermochemical or thermal conversion processes. The analysis includes thermodynamic modeling validated by experimental data.

Assessing Potential Landing Sites With Favorable Illumination and Accessible, Potentially Volatile‐Rich Permanently Shadowed Regions Within Artemis Candidate Landing Regions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The lunar south pole features permanently shadowed regions (PSRs) that never receive direct sunlight. These regions maintain cold temperatures that potentially trap and accumulate volatiles over geologic timescales. Within NASA's Artemis candidate landing regions, we identified 130 candidate landing sites (CLSs) that satisfy the Human Landing ...

Exploring the Habitability of the Outer Solar System Icy Moons for the Extremotolerant Yeast Rhodotorula frigidalcoholis

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 2, February 2026.
We investigated the survival of the yeast Rhodotorula frigidalcoholis and analysed its RNA after exposure to icy moon conditions. Our results show how the yeast can tolerate the extreme conditions and performs metabolic functions under the exposure conditions; for example, by halting the cell cycle in order to repair. Created in BioRender.

Binder Jetting of Lunar Regolith: Densification Optimization in Air and Vacuum, and Mechanical Performance Evaluation

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Binder jetting has emerged as a compelling approach for processing lunar regolith, as it is well‐suited for low‐energy environments and requires lower amounts of organic binder, compared to the competitive technologies. This study investigates the feasibility of binder jetting lunar regolith simulants from micrometric particles, focusing on ...
