SUPER interesting!

I think we've all seen the 3D printed buildings on Earth, but this is pretty cool to think about using materials on the Moon and printing structures on the Moon.

printing structures on the Moon.
I found this video total nonsense, when it comes to anything lunar (Or Mars) we’re way in over our heads with this stuff and this is why its pure fantasy.

Why you might ask:- Well it’s been fifty years since we’ve been on the lunar surface and we have done nothing ever since, why because it’s very difficult to anything on the moon that’s profitable and that’s why we haven’t been back.

All this 3D stuff is pure fantasy and maybe in time, say well over100 years or so, we may develop something that will work on other planets, but until then we need to wake up and smell the roses, it’s not going to happen like they describe in this video.

Space and our atmosphere are two wildly different places, and our science doesn’t work the same way in these two places, (it’s another dimension) so to imagine that they can recreate a machine that will work the same way in space is really asking too much.

Take a look at Star Trek they can travel at light speed in that show, but in reality traveling at that speed is just not on, if you hit something (Even a small object) at that speed your craft would explode into small pieces, but in their fantasy world things are that possible..

Seal the contract and you’re in the money, the Feckin thing doesn’t have to work !
