Turkish Lunar Regolith Simulant TBG-1

Earth and Space 2022, 2023
Being terrestrial for so many thousands of years, humanity is now advancing in the direction of being extraterrestrial. Attempts made until now were quite promising, like walking on the Moon, living in stations for very long durations miles away from Earth, sending probes to unimaginable distances in space and bringing them back to Earth, etc.

Evaluations of lunar regolith simulants

Planetary and Space Science, 2016
Apollo lunar regolith samples are not available in quantity for engineering studies with In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU). Therefore, with expectation of a return to the Moon, dozens of regolith (soil) simulants have been developed, to some extent a result of inefficient distribution of NASA-sanctioned simulants.

Developing an Anorthositic Lunar Regolith Simulant

57th International Astronautical Congress, 2006
We must increase our understanding of the regolith, as future human missions to both the Moon and Mars will rely on it for insitu resource utilization (ISRU) to produce fuel, water, and other life support and construction materials. ISRU will be more cost effective than shipping required materials from Earth.

Thermal properties of lunar regolith simulant melting specimen

Acta Astronautica, 2021
Abstract In this paper, investigations of two types of lunar regolith simulants, called TUBS-M and TUBS-T, developed by the Institute of Space Systems (IRAS) at TU Braunschweig are presented. These investigations are focused on the thermal properties, namely the specific heat capacity and the thermal conductivity.

Robotic drilling tests in simulated lunar regolith environment

Journal of Field Robotics, 2021
AbstractA deep extraterrestrial drilling mission potentially adds a new level of complexity, and it is crucial to understand the associated challenges. To cope with China's Chang'E 5 mission to return subsurface regolith samples from the Moon, a series of laboratory tests were performed to validate the lunar robotic drilling from 2015 to 2018.
