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

A pilot study of laser-welding cast basalt blocks for lunar construction
Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2023 Using sintered or melted regolith to produce masonry units is a promising option for constructing lunar base civil infrastructure. However, the ingredients needed to produce cementitious mortar are not easily available on the moon and using water-based ...
