Biological growth as an alternative approach to on and off-Earth construction

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2022
A critical aspect of human space exploration and eventual settlement is the ability to construct habitats while minimizing payload mass launched from Earth. To respond to this challenge, we have proposed the use of fungal bio-composites for growing extra-
