Motorways on the Moon: Now soon paved roads can be built on the Moon. Scientists believe that they have melted the moon’s soil and prepared it like paved roads. A way has been found to use sunlight to convert more solid substances. This news has come at a time when just a day before, car manufacturer Toyota had presented the concept of its electric SUV car ‘Baby Lunar Cruiser’ for the Moon to the world.
Why is this technology important?This kind of technological breakthrough is significant, DailyMail reports, because moon dust causes all kinds of problems for moon rovers, causing them to either stop working properly or completely shut down. Damage occurs, this happens because due to lack of gravity on the Moon, small dust particles keep floating here and there. At the same time, finding a way to reduce this without the expensive expense of transporting construction materials from Earth would be a big boon for NASA.
Who invented this technology?
To test their theory, researchers at Aalen University in Germany conducted experiments on a lunar soil substitute made by the European Space Agency. They took a carbon dioxide laser and melted a clay substitute to see how solar radiation could liquefy moon dust into a solid substance.
What did the scientists say about the experiment?
These experiments were conducted on Earth, so researchers say their results show that the technology shows potential and can be replicated on the Moon. However, he said that more work is still needed to refine this process.
What is NASA’s goal?
human being Can walk on the moon again in at least 2 years’ time. This is NASA’s goal as it aims to send humans to the Moon’s surface before the ambitious goal of building a Moon base for astronauts to live and work by the 2030s. This means that if humans are to live and work on the Moon, it will be important to build paved roads there. That’s why new research on the possibility of building motorways and landing pads on the Moon is a potential game-changer.
