D printers will make the tools, structures, and habitats space pioneers need to survive in a hostile alien environment.

That’s not true of Mars.” The regolith, or materials that cover the ground of the planet, tells an ancient water story — one that students of space like Hausrath are uncovering, piece by piece.

The research, published in the journal Nature Communications, looks into the material that covers Mars's surface, called regolith. This contains iron minerals, including iron oxide, which you ...

while multiple studies and experiments are investigating regolith to learn more about its transport mechanisms and behavior. As the Artemis Program unfolds and missions to Mars draw nearer ...

possibly after digging it out of wind-blown regolith, and the intelligence to do it all autonomously. With some luck, Perseverance will soon be on its way to Mars, and both when it launches and ...

Habitats on the Moon and Mars must protect astronauts from the lack of air, extreme temperatures, micrometeorite impacts and radiation. Regolith, the fine, dusty, sandlike particles that cover ...

"Models to date that estimate the distribution of surface and subsurface water on Mars assume that its regolith properties are uniform. This contrasts with observations made by orbiters and ...
