NASA's imminent return to the Moon with the Artemis III program necessitates efficient lunar construction and habitation technologies, prompting development of in situ resource utilization (ISRU). Lunar ISRU depends on high-fidelity lunar regolith simulants that must be thermophysically faithful to the Moon. The 5th iteration of the LHT highland simulant series aims to be the best lunar highland simulant to date.
