3D printer will allow printing space objects

Nov 19, 2010

Three-dimensional printing - a completely new technology printing industry. With such a printing can print structures and artificial replacements for human organs. Grand stage will be to use three-dimensional printing in outer space. It remains to be the development of this technology to a high level. Today the organization Made in Space (done in space) began to attract investment needed to launch a project to create a print in the cosmos.

According to the staff of this organization, the emergence of three-dimensional space print will significantly improve and facilitate the production of components for space satellites. In addition, the emergence of space to print a few times will reduce the number of cargo flights into space. The main product, which will need to send into orbit, will be the material needed to operate the printer. The important point is that, for the manufacture of parts of the failed printer will use the materials previously sent into orbit. That is, processing of raw materials will occur. This in turn will reduce costs for new parts for the 3D printer.

Departures of people on other planets is not far off. When that moment comes, the new printers will play a role. The fact is the construction of the space base will be possible with the help of materials used in the printer. Raw materials These printers will also help in creating devices for the development of new planets.

Plans of the company Made in Space is really daunting. But, unfortunately, the company is only the first step in the development of print space. Employees have already been made several tests of new printers. Were printed out some of the details of space objects. In further promotion of the company is testing the printer is operating in complete weightlessness. Let's hope that this test will be successful. Indeed, in the case of a positive result of further testing will already take place in outer space.
