Scientists develop 3D printing formula for Martian habitats

In recent months, researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology developed a 3D printing formula for constructing habitats on Mars. This innovative approach combines Martian regolith, engineered yeast, and gelatine to create a lightweight and strong building material. The research aligns with NASA's efforts to establish permanent infrastructure on Mars and the Moon, highlighting the importance of sustainable living conditions for future space missions.
