AG3D Lab's JWST v3, Mars Update: 3D printing regolith & MOXIE converts CO2 to O, & DART asteroid impact soon!
from Today In Space · host Alex G. Orphanos
On this week's podcast we discuss all-things space NOT including NASA's Artemis & SpaceX. But instead share some updates from the AG3D Printing Lab, Orbital News from Mars, & review the upcoming DART mission. - AG3D Lab releases it's v3 design for the James Webb Space Telescope. We tested out a new durable resin and share some of the process of using our larger resin 3D printer the ELEGOO Saturn S. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CiqOrDWjJJo/ https://www.instagram.com/reel/CiqQUcaDeh1/ - Mars Update 1: 3D printing Martian regolith (soil) with a Ti mixture could provide huge benefit for life on Mars. A little soil goes a long way, and could solve problems not possible with space mission designs today. https://news.wsu.edu/press-release/2022/09/06/martian-rock-metal-composite-shows-potential-of-3d-printing-on-mars/ https://ceramics.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ijac.14136 - Mars Update 2: The Perseverance Rover's MOXIE instrument has successfully converted CO2 into Oxygen and Carbon Monoxide. Oxygen so pure we can breathe it and use it for fuel on a return mission to Earth. https://spectrum-ieee-org.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/spectrum.ieee.org/amp/making-oxygen-on-mars-2658157775 - DART Mission will impact an asteroid/moonlet (dual Asteroid system Didymos and Dimorphos) on Sept to see if we are better than the Dinosaurs. Kinetic Impacter spacecraft to prove strategic physics can prevent extinction-level event.
