On the surface, these companies appear to be simply Elon Musk’s crazy whims but dig a little deeper and it’s clear they are all connected.
The AI Space Factory concept of using a 25% PLA plastic + 75% Mars Basalt fiber mix is one of the more promising and innovative solutions we have seen. There are still significant engineering challenges that are needed to be overcome before this concept is completely science fact instead of part science fiction. This article conducts a deep analysis into the current proposal and goes into the technical details of what is needed for this habitat to become viable.
Creating true gravity is still outside our technological reach so companies like SpaceX may look to use a low-tech solution to solve the problem. So to create artificial gravity, we just need to take our Starship for a spin… literally.
The future of sustainable food production on Mars may rely on the science behind beer, yogurt and 3d printing.
SpaceX will use old school (1890’s) tech to fuel their cutting edge Raptor engines on Mars as a key piece to The Mars Blueprint.
