In fact, there are a few; last year saw the conclusion of a contest held by NASA called the 3D Printed Habitat Challenge . The long-running competition, started in 2015, tasked participants with creating homes that would be viable to build on Mars. Teams had to consider not just the technology they’d use, but what type of material […]
