Mixture of Martian rock and titanium could be 3D printed into new lower-cost equipment off-world

Researchers at Washington State University (WSU) have developed a material that could be used to 3D print the equipment needed in future missions to explore the red planet.  By mixing titanium with simulated Martian regolith, the scientists have been able to create a feedstock that can be Directed Energy Deposition (DED) 3D printed into structures […]
