This book provides an in-depth overview of the technologies for building sustainable lunar bases. It focuses on the challenges of the lunar environmentâ€”such as low gravity, extreme temperature fluctuations, radiation, and moonquakesâ€”and the materials that can be sourced from lunar regolith. The book also outlines various construction methods, such as 3D printing and masonry, providing insights into their application for lunar bases. Furthermore, it highlights essential processes and equipment for lunar construction, including the use of advanced printing techniques and geological exploration tools. Case studies from different space agencies offer practical examples of proposed solutions. Aimed at researchers, engineers, and decision-makers in aerospace, civil engineering, and materials science, this book is a critical resource for understanding the future of lunar exploration and base development.
