Moon to Mars Planetary Autonomous Construction Technology’s (MMPACT) Microwave Structure Construction Capability (MSCC) team is developing the ability to prepare the lunar regolith and densify it into glass-ceramic landing pads and horizontal infrastructure. Microwave energy will be utilized to densify the lunar regolith. Some of the concept of operations, simulant and synthetic minerals, site preparation, design, microwave sintering, testing, & ancillary instrument technical challenges were listed. A current status of the MSCC project is also provided.
