The squishy trackers are already out in the field.

ICON's Project Olympus - Off-world Construction System for the Moon

"Building humanity’s first home on another world will be the most ambitious construction project in human history and will push science, engineering, technology, and architecture to literal new heights."

NASA invests in 3D printing space habitat technology

Good PR

US-based construction technologies startup ICON signed a contract with the Air Force to develop a 3D-printing-based construction system called "Project Olympus" for the Moon.

"We know all these concepts work. The problem is we can't build them fast and cheap enough."

Using local materials is a lot easier — and dramatically cheaper — than lugging heavy construction supplies from Earth.

Scientists: Astronauts could build Moon base using human urine

Moon. Pee. Base.

In an experiment, a team of European researchers attempted to use the main compound in human urine and lunar regolith to create a resilient concrete.
