Abstract: The NASA Centennial Challenges: 3D-Printed Habitat Challenge seeks to develop the fundamental technologies necessary to manufacture an off-world habitat using mission recycled materials andor local indigenous materials. The vision is that autonomous habitat manufacturing machines will someday be deployed to the Moon or Mars to construct shelters for human habitation.NASA and Bradley University, are holding a new US$ 2.5 million competition to design and build a 3-D printed habitat for deep sp…
