What might life on the moon look like? How can lunar resources be utilized to build local infrastructure? How will astronauts—and possibly future lunar inhabitants—live? These are crucial questions being explored by ESA and NASA. As part of the Artemis program, astronauts are visiting the moon to investigate these issues and develop potential solutions. A new, playful approach may offer additional insights. Scientists have created 3D-printed LEGO bricks from moon dust to construct habitats, launch pads, and protective structures. This initiative aims to achieve scientific objectives while also sparking children’s interest in space exploration.
