“We’ve tested the technology extensively in the lab and now in microgravity, and we’re confident that it’s ready to perform as expected, opening up the possibility of 3D printing antenna and other ...

The core principles of 3D printing rockets are therefore largely old news, in the grand scheme of things. Relativity Space simply wants to do it bigger. To take the small steps made by other ...

Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, is regularly used on the ground to quickly produce a variety of devices. Adapting this process for space could let crew members create tools and ...

These moments are what Professor Ryan Truby envisioned when outlining the new 3D Printing Resin Design Labs for his course, MAT_SCI 331: Soft Materials. A core undergraduate course in the Department ...

Space pioneers will bring 3D printers with them to make the tools, structures and habitats space pioneers need to survive in a hostile alien environment.

This 3D printing technology could allow astronauts to manufacture satellite engines in space, eliminating the need for Earth-based launches. Electrospray engines use electric fields to create high ...

UW researchers develop new 3D printing materials. The materials are not only biodegradable and sustainable but also stronger ...
