Making parts on Mars: Laser processing of iron contaminated by regolith simulant
Manufacturing pure metals on Mars is challenging due to limited energy resources and unavoidable contamination of raw materials and production equipment with the Martian dust (regolith) resulting in impure materials. Understanding the effect of contamination on material properties is crucial for est...
