Press Release: LIVING ON THE MOON: LIVING OFF THE MOON
As space exploration advances, the ability to utilise local resources becomes increasingly important. Transporting materials from Earth to the Moon is incredibly expensive, making it crucial for future lunar inhabitants to rely on locally sourced materials rather than on resupply missions from Earth. Fortunately, the Moon offers a wide range of resources, however determining how best to extract and use them presents a unique challenge. In this talk, we will explore potential solutions for utilising lunar resources in the near future.
