Moon-to-Mars Planetary Autonomous Construction Technology

NASA MMPACT is a Game Changing Development project developing autonomous, large-scale construction technologies that use lunar and Martian regolith to build habitats, landing pads, roads, berms, blast shields, and other surface infrastructure. The project combines robotic construction systems, feedstock processing, and microwave sintering to support on-demand planetary construction and sustainable exploration.
