Investigation of the melting behavior of laser-melted lunar regolith simulant for in-situ construction

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology
Additive manufacturing of lunar regolith is one of the most promising methods for lunar surface construction. In order to obtain excellent formability of lunar regolith, the interaction between laser and lunar regolith has to be studied in detail.

[Effect of lunar dust on humans: -lunar dust: regolith-].

open access: yesNihon eiseigaku zasshi. Japanese journal of hygiene, 2010
We reviewed the effect of lunar dust (regolith) on humans by the combination of the hazard/exposure of regolith and microgravity of the moon. With regard to the physicochemical properties of lunar dust, the hazard-related factors are its components, fibrous materials and nanoparticles.

Thermal Properties of Lunar Regolith Simulants [PDF]

open access: yesEarth and Space 2010, 2010
Various high temperature chemical processes have been developed to extract oxygen and metals from lunar regolith. These processes are tested using terrestrial analogues of the regolith. But all practical terrestrial analogs contain H2O and/or OH-, the presence of which has substantial impact on important system behaviors.

Crater Observing Bioinspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA)

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Crater Observing Bio‐inspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA) is a modular, snake‐inspired robot that addresses the mobility challenges of extraterrestrial exploration sites such as Shackleton Crater. Incorporating snake‐like gaits and tumbling locomotion, COBRA navigates both uneven surfaces and steep crater walls.

In Situ Methanation on Mars: A Process Concept Study on the Impact of H2/CO2 and Recycle Ratio

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
The rocket propellant methane can be produced on Mars by in situ resource utilization. The H2/CO2 ratio is decisive, and excess H2 is favored for providing sufficient propellant purity. The operation mode—with or without recycling of unreacted reactants—depends on the resource availability of the selected landing site. Abstract For return missions from
