Spectral-Kinetic Synergy in Au-Network Engineered FeTiO<sub>3</sub>: A Multi-Field Coupling Strategy for Lunar In Situ Resource Utilization. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
How can humanity achieve lunar self‐sufficiency? We utilize Au topology networks to modify the abundant lunar ilmenite. This catalyst, under sunlight, can convert waste carbon dioxide into space fuel. This design leverages the moon's natural vacuum for green manufacturing, avoiding the waste of gold and serving as “artificial chloroplasts” to sustain ...

Internal Heat Gains in a Lunar Base—A Contemporary Case Study

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
The Moon’s environmental conditions present limited opportunities for waste heat dissipation, so internal heat gains (IHG) are a key component of thermal balance in a lunar building. Despite the significant development in energy saving and energy storage
