Jessica Hodge+FollowMoon Dust: The Next Big Thing in Space?Imagine if we could just scoop up moon dust and turn it into water, rocket fuel, and even oxygen. That’s what Chinese scientists are working on, and it could make building moon bases way cheaper (no more $83k per gallon to ship water!). They’ve managed to extract water and fuel from lunar soil in the lab, but the real test will be if it works on the actual moon. Still, this could totally change the game for future space colonies! #Science #SpaceInnovation #MoonBase30Share
James Brady+FollowMoon Dirt: The New Water Cooler?Scientists just built a device that literally turns moon dirt into water and oxygen—no more hauling pricey supplies from Earth! By heating lunar soil, this gadget pulls out hidden water and uses it to make oxygen and even rocket fuel. One ton of moon dirt could give enough water for 50 people a day. The best part? It’s powered by sunlight and could fit on a fridge-sized lander. Future moon bases just got way more real! #Science #MoonBase #SpaceTech12Share
