ESA and Airbus Achieve First 3D Metal Printing in Space, Involving Cranfield University and UK Space Agency
Sep 6, 2024, 03:36 PM
The European Space Agency (ESA) and Airbus Space have successfully 3D printed the first-ever metal part in space. This groundbreaking achievement was accomplished using a 3D printer developed by Airbus and its partners, including Cranfield University and the UK Space Agency. The ability to print metal parts in microgravity could revolutionize space missions by allowing astronauts to manufacture tools and components on demand. This milestone sets the stage for future missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond, where in-situ resource utilization will be critical.
