Foster and Partners, a London based architecture firm, has unveiled its designs for a hypothetical moon base, constructed using large scale, robot-operated 3D printers and raw materials found on the Moon. Using regolith, the powdery substance popularly known as “lunar soil,” Monolite UK’s D-shape 3D printers would be able to construct a habitable facility on the Moon’s surface large enough to accommodate up to four people, with the option of adding extensions.
