Zero Gravity 3D printing

Zero Gravity 3D printing refers to a specialized technique for creating objects in a microgravity environment, such as space. Traditional 3D printing relies on gravity to help materials settle and bond correctly. In zero gravity, the absence of gravity can complicate the process. This method uses innovative approaches to ensure that materials layer properly and maintain their shape without gravitational force. It has significant potential for manufacturing in space, allowing astronauts to produce tools, parts, or structures on-demand, which can enhance missions and reduce the need to transport supplies from Earth.
