Thermoplastic is a *very* broad term. I'm sure the bulk of the material and rigidity is made from Mars sand but they might have to bring some additives. Some could argue that glass can be used as a thermoplastic (after all, in normal 3D printing terms, the plastic solidifying is called "glassing"), and glass is made of sand.
@@Toastmaster_5000 , ESA are working in a 3D printing builder that uses concentrated sunlight to sinter lunar regolith. Sintering doesn't go as far as melting, but it does soften the rock grains enough to fuse together.
@@massimookissed1023 I am a bit surprised NASA didn't go for sintering for Mars, but, I wonder if the problem is because Mars is too cold and windy. The moon has practically no atmosphere or wind and is closer to the sun, which makes sintering MUCH easier there.
Hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen are the three main elements in plastic. The key is producing ethylene gas (C2H4). Carbon dioxide and hydrogen combined in a reaction gives you ethylene and water. With some known chemistry discovered in the late 1800s, they can literally create plastics out of thin air. They just need to bring the equipment and hydrogen to mars to get it all started.
@@lizzy777 Ok, that makes sense. They put 0 effort to explaining how the process of making the material was going to happen. H2 being bulky wouldn't be the best component to bring in large quantities I would imagine. I figure that would be best made from the water on Mars? but the guy said they didn't want to use water due to its preciousness.

Congrats on the design of the new house, just if the glass to the top of the building never fell in on Earth it would of fell in on Mars... so a good job it did. I think that if humans or robots planted some seeds and a few bushes including grass, the atmosphere on Mars would start to change due to the introductory of a new gas i.e. Oxygen, what will be let out by the greenery. What would make the Ozone layer start to become thicker, making it more and more suitable for human life. Now many many people say that Marses water be under ground and the roots of the greenery that got planted would find liquid that would also be from the snow on Mars.

Lol, something tells me a Thunderfoot video will be incoming after this I love their "sustainable" habitats made out of plastic (the very thing we are trying to stop using in wasteful ways). You know what's sustainable? WOOD, 100% biodegradable and just plant trees after cutting ones down, rinse and repeat.

I have two questions about the vacuum energy in the universe and the negative and positive pressure in the fabric of the universe The first question What is the difference between negative and positive pressure in the fabric of the universe? The second question is about the vacuum energy in the universe What molecules are responsible for vacuum energy? I want to know the molecules generating vacuum energy in the universe We need an advanced surveillance camera to detect things smaller than quarks As well as the search for a new way to destroy the quarks In order to discover the gravitational particles responsible for the vacuum energy Please provide these questions and suggestions to the research team in Physics and Technology
A few things.. what do you mean by vacuum energy? A vacuum is the absence of any matter at all, so there would be no molecules responsible for vacuums. Also, a main reason we can’t detect incredibly tiny things like quarks is because simply observing them can change them; to “see something, a photon must bounce off it and into our eyes/a camera. But some tiny particles are affected by photons, so we can’t really see themمنوعات يوتيوب
We need to GFTO of this rock if the species is to survive. A sort of contingency plan in case we can't save Earth. "Hope for the best, plan for the worst"
Why not just excavate a habitat underground then seal it? The ground will act as a shield for all that radiation and is extremely resilient to micrometeorites.
I agree completely. Much more practical to carve out or even find existing old lava tubes in the ground. Would likely be better at blocking cosmic rays also.
Good point, Icholi88. I imagine that stage zero - the arrive & get things prepared for building stage - they'll have to go build underground bunkers. They need to (1) gather the basalt rock and prepare it for use then (2) grow that bio-whatz-it that mixes with the pulverized (?) basalt to make the walls. It's a fascinating thought.
In the short-term, YES--of course. That doesn't mean we shouldn't research other alternatives and figure out how to fully implement them once we get there.
I think it is a good idea to at least start having a plan for when we won’t be able to live in this planet, using that technology to solve some problems of humanity while we still here, and creating money for this projects for human prosperity to solve or current humanity problems and for this kind of problems that will eventually happen in the future, this planet has cicles, and we eventually won’t be able to live here any more, I think we should create money to organize resources to solve those human problems and prevent chaos in this humanity.

When in MARS, can start building inside a cave? Is mars cave strong to hold? Use a cave as a protection layer and build inside it? Is it possible? Sometimes i think most people thing too much but if we study our human civilization, we didn’t start building but we try to use natural environments and slowly advancing out from cave to stone house and to present... cant we do that?
Cellulose fibers and spider silk are both polymers, just like pectin and lignin are, which all are completely biodegradable as three of them make up wood.

You could save space on the Mars spacecraft (and on trucks if you want to 3D print homes on Earth) by having a smaller 3D printer print a larger 3d printer, you could also have the 3D printer build plates to make its neck longer and the base of the 3D printer 3D printed as well. 3D printing the moving parts will be harder, but still possible. Rep Rap showed that even the extruder can be 3D printed.
It is an interesting design. There are some buts though. Radiation scientists anticipate that regolith based polymer concrete on Mars would have to be a foot thick to provide adequate radiation protection. Even scaling up this design won't provide for enough radiation protection not to mention the glass structures or the sun roof which would let the radiation right through. The other issue that nobody is addressing is that the regolith on Mars is filled with perchlorate. I have seen no analysis of what perchlorate contaminated regolith concrete or printed plastic will do to a human. Another serious issue is that as you freeze thermoplastics and at around 150 below zero it would definitely be frozen, thermoplastic has a major tendency to become brittle and crack. With a 1 bar to 0 bar gradient between the inside and outside of these structures they could conceivably just shatter. Having the structure be a foot thick would mitigate that a lot but they aren't planning nor have they proposed a foot thick structure. They would also have to ship a chemical factory up to the planet since thermoplastics are long molecular chains of C, H, N and O. The carbon is somewhat easy to get on the planets surface and by splitting the CO2 you can get oxygen but hydrogen and nitrogen are not up there in any quantity needed to construct thermoplastic. Also, try scaling a plastics manufacturing chemical plant down to something you can fly to Mars. I do not know the exact answer to the energy requirements to make the polymer then melt it for construction but I think the team that is working on the kilopower reactors needs to step up their output by a lot. They can, at most, presently and presently planned, network 4 10 KW reactors together to power anything or everything in some modular unit close by. Good luck with all that. There is some sort of a disease impregnating all of these funded experimental projects. They don't meet the fundamental criteria to work in the environment that are supposed to work in. That includes the regolith mining project that can't accomodate simple rocks and depend on having a pure bed of nothing but the proper grain size regolith to work with which is totally absurd. It includes all of these habitat projects also and I have reviewed several. The no gravity environment of space and radiation are not being seriously addressed. The Hall effect thruster project wants 200 KW to ramp up the power of the thrusters for shorter term flights to Mars but the kilopower project can produce 40 for that too. Who is working on Mars dust proof air lock designs and decontamination rooms to remove the dust so it doesn't pollute the inside of a habitat(perchlorate dust regolith again). I haven't seen this. I see plant growing projects showing plants growing in "Mars regollith simulant". It doesn't have perchlorate in it. Water introduced into a perchlorate regolith leaches the perchlorate into the water which uptakes it into the plants so will Mars colonists be eating that? Perchlorate has a nasty tendency to kill plants as well as humans by the way. Can humans even be sustained in 1/3rd earth gravity perpetually? Nobody is interested in doing this gravitational science to find out. If I were going to Mars I would want to have some assurance that I would survive the trip, could live there without being poisoned and have enough gravity to maintain my physiology BEFORE I got on the rocket.

Congrats on the design of the new house, just if the glass to the top of the building never fell in on Earth it would of fell in on Mars... so a good job it did.
I think that if humans or robots planted some seeds and a few bushes including grass, the atmosphere on Mars would start to change due to the introductory of a new gas i.e. Oxygen, what will be let out by the greenery. What would make the Ozone layer start to become thicker, making it more and more suitable for human life.
Now many many people say that Marses water be under ground and the roots of the greenery that got planted would find liquid that would also be from the snow on Mars.
Yeah but the sun is a DEADLY LAZER
I love this design. It's organic. Beautifully elegant. It does not take up much space and let's in a lot of light. Let's build this on Earth too
Seeker: it might take decades
Elon musk: *starts laughing*
karim rebai I know right
it will take decades
What I find funny is that people think Space-X is dependent on NASA... or that, for some reason, NASA is going to Mars with people. Sorry... Space-X is going, not NASA... Musk already said as much.
Отрегулировать, потренироваться и всё получится! :) Потом попробовать зимой в Антарктиде, автономно возвести постройку.
Good vid. It's crazy to think about buying a home someday that might be 3dprinted onsite. It never mentioned cost though
Lol, something tells me a Thunderfoot video will be incoming after this
I love their "sustainable" habitats made out of plastic (the very thing we are trying to stop using in wasteful ways). You know what's sustainable? WOOD, 100% biodegradable and just plant trees after cutting ones down, rinse and repeat.
Wood is where its at. But 90% of Europe hates it, because they consider it inferior to their concrete and too American. So wood housing will never take off here.
@@Erowens98 Well I guess it is inferior durability wise, but cost is way cheaper. I wonder if they don't like it there because it tends to be a wetter climate and they get more wood rot than we would in the US?
@@95TurboSol i think its more down to higher land cost and beurocracy. Much cheaper to put up a 5 floor apartment building. In terms of land. And our laws make building difficult
7:14 that’s so awkwardddd
No 6:32 is awkward
Theses habitat are so nice that i think i'm gonna built one for myself!
Would love a house like this.. Our normal designs are very boring.
I have two questions about the vacuum energy in the universe and the negative and positive pressure in the fabric of the universe
The first question
What is the difference between negative and positive pressure in the fabric of the universe?
The second question is about the vacuum energy in the universe
What molecules are responsible for vacuum energy?
I want to know the molecules generating vacuum energy in the universe
We need an advanced surveillance camera to detect things smaller than quarks
As well as the search for a new way to destroy the quarks
In order to discover the gravitational particles responsible for the vacuum energy
Please provide these questions and suggestions to the research team in Physics and Technology
A few things.. what do you mean by vacuum energy? A vacuum is the absence of any matter at all, so there would be no molecules responsible for vacuums. Also, a main reason we can’t detect incredibly tiny things like quarks is because simply observing them can change them; to “see something, a photon must bounce off it and into our eyes/a camera. But some tiny particles are affected by photons, so we can’t really see themمنوعات يوتيوب
We need to GFTO of this rock if the species is to survive. A sort of contingency plan in case we can't save Earth. "Hope for the best, plan for the worst"
We can screw things up on any rock!
@@keepitreal2902 But the more rocks we are on, the more likely a particular screw up wont kill the entire species.
Ben Higgins if all you see are humans screwing things up, look elsewhere
How do we know this species is supposed to survive?
@@Palau_LegendI'll look wherever I please.
Практичней и безопасней изготавливать и использовать подповерхностные строения на планетоидах!
Awesome idea! I wonder if the material will still stick during the printing process with Martian dust blowing all over it...
It's not like a constant dust storm there... they are occasional.
Thumbnail looks like a community of squidward houses
Why not just excavate a habitat underground then seal it? The ground will act as a shield for all that radiation and is extremely resilient to micrometeorites.
I agree completely. Much more practical to carve out or even find existing old lava tubes in the ground. Would likely be better at blocking cosmic rays also.
Good point, Icholi88. I imagine that stage zero - the arrive & get things prepared for building stage - they'll have to go build underground bunkers. They need to (1) gather the basalt rock and prepare it for use then (2) grow that bio-whatz-it that mixes with the pulverized (?) basalt to make the walls.
It's a fascinating thought.
Excellent demonstration of what makes it possible to build for another planet habitat can be done here on earth.
It's like watching one of those cake competitions, except this is actually interesting
You should have shown the structural tests really impressive, the other building crumbled whilst theirs supported the full weight of the machine.
Better off digging a shelter underground on a hill. Those print heads will freeze.
In the short-term, YES--of course.
That doesn't mean we shouldn't research other alternatives and figure out how to fully implement them once we get there.
so yes -radiation under the ground
I vote myself to go to mars, send me up I want to go...
I think it is a good idea to at least start having a plan for when we won’t be able to live in this planet, using that technology to solve some problems of humanity while we still here, and creating money for this projects for human prosperity to solve or current humanity problems and for this kind of problems that will eventually happen in the future, this planet has cicles, and we eventually won’t be able to live here any more, I think we should create money to organize resources to solve those human problems and prevent chaos in this humanity.
That really is a thrilling concept and design.
I just want to be around smart people, maybe because I am slightly retarted, I have great respect for them
He’s gonna be big
I love nerds.
Beautiful ! Just Beautiful!! Imagine all that plastic polluting the oceans being remanufactured into 3D printer goo to manufacture sea borne solar energy and wind energy scaffolds and such. A barge that can flip to scrape and harvest the barnacles. Mushroom cloud of ideas.
One of the very few videos that's actually good. Recommendation: move you're HQ out of NY: you're killing yourself with taxes.
When in MARS, can start building inside a cave? Is mars cave strong to hold?
Use a cave as a protection layer and build inside it? Is it possible?
Sometimes i think most people thing too much but if we study our human civilization, we didn’t start building but we try to use natural environments and slowly advancing out from cave to stone house and to present... cant we do that?
Just take shovels dig into the mountain
or make a hole in the ground like coober pedy
There's a whole town underground in Australia
Really?
@@hemprope4326 this whole mission is a really
Let’s print our way to Mars! Love it 🙌🏽😁
if you use clay or some other earth material instead of polymers on earth than im all in
Cellulose fibers and spider silk are both polymers, just like pectin and lignin are, which all are completely biodegradable as three of them make up wood.
Polymers don't have to be plastics made from hydrocarbons. The PLA (poly-lactic acid) they used in their project is a renewable plastic made from plant waste and/or bacterial cultures.
I love your idea and so proud with his parents 💝👍
Today's fact 2: A single cloud can weight more than 500 000 kg. ☁️🌤☁️
but how big is that single cloud
@@JosephRandomGameing yeah
Made in Space resource manufacturing is so smart and STEM makes it all possible. Outstanding innovation way to go AI SPACE. ❤️
Yes!!!! They used metric!! I’m so happy
This is amazing!! Engineering is so cool!
And why exactly do we want inhabit Mars?
Paul Tudor-Stack because the earth’s climate change is getting worsr
DEDSEC R13 good point
We should go to the moon before going to mars
@DEDSEC R13 You honestly think that we have a few centuries left before this planet becomes a stinking burning garbage dump? Colonizing another planet is science fantasy. It will never happen.
@@paultudor-stack1005 people like you said that man can never fly 200 years ago and look where we are.
I'am happy for you and your tecnology
Also what do you mean fix earth? Earth is in way better shape then mars.
The amazon rainforest is on fire we need to fix earth
@games guitars and gore Earth is in great shape no planet like it that we know of. Mars is not much better then the moon. The moon is a lot closer we should start with it.
@who am i. who are you Fools make these climate liars billions. Mars climate is already trashed. Very cold & high radiation & the water is deep in its crust. Scientists are stupid to think there is no water on mars of course there is. Water is everywhere in the universe all you do is burn oxgen with hydrogen = water. Taking care of environment is important but dont scare people like this.
@@ioutra6121 look at China they have made the earth more green planted trees in a desert made big difference. Amazon rain forest was set on fire they needed more land to farm they just wont admit this. We humans will take care of earth dont worry. Mars dont have any trees hows it better? My point is people make the environment sound like dooms day to make money & improve the environment.
@games guitars and gore lol change my mind give me proof
That's so cool
Immagine spaceX's starship landing on mars and set the 3d printer , and then build these things !
Would be awsome!
I'm thinking the same thing.
Those habits in the woodland looked beautiful
Cant they use this for the homeless? 🤷🏽♂️
Homeless need the city to get food. This can't be build in cities.
Spaced Out thats one thing wont cross their mind.only 💰 matters
Because it's... free? How does that differ from any other housing solution for the homeless?
@@creatorsremose cause its free labor and im sure its cheaper materials and easy to make.
@@tellitlikeitis9498 Irrelevant. Most modern cities have housing solution for the homeless - Amsterdam, Berlin, Tel Aviv, Stockholm. Many homeless choose not to take it because of the "no drugs" policies in these solutions. It's not as simple as "let's make houses", there's an entire "homeless" culture you're ignoring.
LOVED his sustainability from space tech close. It's the simple truth.
we spend way much money on army in every country on earth, wich we can spend on climate change!
Ziko Riko that won’t stop an army invading your country
In my opinion as far as earth is concerned, we should be building down, not up. By doing so we can reduce our outdoor footprint from the size of a entire house to that of a small room after the construction site is replanted.
It is reuploaded?
This is so ***awesome!
Hoping prefab homes industry will adopt this approach soon, because a house on Mars or even the moon still has a long way to materialize.
Again, that rectangular shape windows will eventually end up cracking on its corners, that is why airplanes doesn’t have a cornered windows. You can observe on your concrete windows right now and you will find cracks on its corners.
Very nice video man
Замечательная идея, есть только два но...
1. толщина стены
2. где возьмёте материал для печати, логистика то явно дороговата будет.
Чтобы запустить 3Д печать домов нужна энергия, для этого им придётся развернуть приличную электростанцию.
Ребята предлагают печатать дома из пластика, который придётся завозить тоннами с Земли, а таких ракет ещё не существует.
На Марсе большие перепады температуры и пластиковые дома зимней ночью растрескаются, а летним днём растают.
Есть более реальные проекты, но они тоже невероятны.
Основные деньги сейчас у США, а им таяние ледников особо не страшно.
А у островных государств нет ни денег ни технологий для колонизации Марса.
Скорее всего все эти государства просто уйдут в небытие с повышением уровня океана и вместе с ними мечты о переселении на мёртвую планету.

Awesome work 💪💪💪
You could save space on the Mars spacecraft (and on trucks if you want to 3D print homes on Earth) by having a smaller 3D printer print a larger 3d printer, you could also have the 3D printer build plates to make its neck longer and the base of the 3D printer 3D printed as well. 3D printing the moving parts will be harder, but still possible. Rep Rap showed that even the extruder can be 3D printed.
I was just watching the video on their concept like what, a month ago? And now it's been built (Smaller scale) amazing stuff!
Just like the moon... Well done Nasa , well done!
I wonder what the seismic activity of mars is. Could it make more sense to have underground bases at first?
Underground is the only option radiation levels above ground are deadly.
It is an interesting design. There are some buts though. Radiation scientists anticipate that regolith based polymer concrete on Mars would have to be a foot thick to provide adequate radiation protection. Even scaling up this design won't provide for enough radiation protection not to mention the glass structures or the sun roof which would let the radiation right through. The other issue that nobody is addressing is that the regolith on Mars is filled with perchlorate. I have seen no analysis of what perchlorate contaminated regolith concrete or printed plastic will do to a human. Another serious issue is that as you freeze thermoplastics and at around 150 below zero it would definitely be frozen, thermoplastic has a major tendency to become brittle and crack. With a 1 bar to 0 bar gradient between the inside and outside of these structures they could conceivably just shatter. Having the structure be a foot thick would mitigate that a lot but they aren't planning nor have they proposed a foot thick structure. They would also have to ship a chemical factory up to the planet since thermoplastics are long molecular chains of C, H, N and O. The carbon is somewhat easy to get on the planets surface and by splitting the CO2 you can get oxygen but hydrogen and nitrogen are not up there in any quantity needed to construct thermoplastic. Also, try scaling a plastics manufacturing chemical plant down to something you can fly to Mars. I do not know the exact answer to the energy requirements to make the polymer then melt it for construction but I think the team that is working on the kilopower reactors needs to step up their output by a lot. They can, at most, presently and presently planned, network 4 10 KW reactors together to power anything or everything in some modular unit close by. Good luck with all that.
There is some sort of a disease impregnating all of these funded experimental projects. They don't meet the fundamental criteria to work in the environment that are supposed to work in. That includes the regolith mining project that can't accomodate simple rocks and depend on having a pure bed of nothing but the proper grain size regolith to work with which is totally absurd. It includes all of these habitat projects also and I have reviewed several. The no gravity environment of space and radiation are not being seriously addressed. The Hall effect thruster project wants 200 KW to ramp up the power of the thrusters for shorter term flights to Mars but the kilopower project can produce 40 for that too. Who is working on Mars dust proof air lock designs and decontamination rooms to remove the dust so it doesn't pollute the inside of a habitat(perchlorate dust regolith again). I haven't seen this. I see plant growing projects showing plants growing in "Mars regollith simulant". It doesn't have perchlorate in it. Water introduced into a perchlorate regolith leaches the perchlorate into the water which uptakes it into the plants so will Mars colonists be eating that? Perchlorate has a nasty tendency to kill plants as well as humans by the way.
Can humans even be sustained in 1/3rd earth gravity perpetually? Nobody is interested in doing this gravitational science to find out. If I were going to Mars I would want to have some assurance that I would survive the trip, could live there without being poisoned and have enough gravity to maintain my physiology BEFORE I got on the rocket.
Stay here and fix the Earth 🙏.
Superb content. Thank you!
Absolutely amazing 3D printing
As someone struggling to learn/use Blender, I have to say, "Great job!!!" Design is HARD when you're trying to do it right!
