Kenneth Wong · August 7, 2018 · …lab is experimenting with 3D-printing habitable structures using a process called robotic extrusion, and a composite material made up of loose sediment (soil, dust, broken rock, etc.) and recycled plastic. The sediment, known as regolith, can be widely found on Earth, other planets, the moon, and even asteroids…

Jim Romeo · May 2, 2022 · An emerging 3D printing trend is the technology’s capability to print larger forms and even architectural structures that can fabricate affordable housing, large shapes and parts. As 3D printing advances, users learn from experience and gain insight regarding scale of design—how it can help or hinder a project,…

Mark Clarkson · February 1, 2013 · The granddaddy of 3D printing is stereolithography (SLA), invented way back in 1986. A UV laser scans across the surface of a vat of liquid photopolymer. Where it touches, the liquid transforms into a solid. As work progresses, the part drops deeper into the polymer on an elevator,…

The current crop of CCS projects are storing about 45 million tons of CO2 each year, equivalent to the amount of CO2 emissions created by 10 million passenger cars, according to one MIT explainer on the topic. The…
