A team from the University of Arkansas has proposed a new method for 3D printing on the moon.
They say light-based sintering is used to manufacture lunar bricks, rather than printing whole structures.
The team envisions a system where only lunar material is needed for the structures themselves, thus eliminating the bottleneck of binder resupply missions from Earth .
The ' Lego Bricks' concept is especially attractive because of the way it produces reconfigurable bricks.
More research is needed to optimize the sintering parameters and material properties.
The team plans to build a prototype and conduct laboratory tests to refine and scale the technology for use on the moon .
