China Develops ‘Moon Bricks’ And Plans To Build Base On The Moon. Permanent Chinese Base On The Moon Will Be Ready By The Next Decade For Research, check out the details!
Chinese scientists have achieved an impressive feat by creating ‘moon bricks’, more precisely a material that mimics lunar soil. The reason for this is the need for a resilient element to build a base on the moon in the future. Understand everything about the moon bricks that will build a permanent base for China on the Moon.
How Is China Planning To Build Its Base On The Moon With ‘Moon Bricks’?
The team behind these ‘moon bricks’ are researchers from Huazhong University of Science and Technology. The bricks for a permanent Chinese base on the Moon were produced with a simulator and are three times more resistant than conventional concrete or ceramic bricks.
The team, led by Ding Lieyun, also developed a 3D printing robot that will construct a permanent Chinese base on the Moon. In an interview with Xinhua, Zhou Cheng, a team member, explained that five analyses of the variations of simulated lunar soil were necessary, as well as three tests of sintering methods, which allowed them to obtain important data for refining constructions on the moon.

It is worth mentioning that, depending on the region, the moon’s soil has different compositions. In the Chang’e 5 mission, the simulated soil for building the base on the Moon is predominantly basaltic.
Now, before actually using the moon bricks for a permanent Chinese base on the Moon, they will undergo tests to determine if they can truly withstand the adverse conditions of the location. The expectation is that the moon bricks will be sent to the space station to be tested in space during the Tianzhou 8 mission. The first brick is expected to return to Earth by the end of 2025.
Permanent Chinese Base On The Moon Is Expected To Be Ready By 2035
The lunar environment is hostile, with intense cosmic radiation and temperatures reaching 180°C during the day and dropping to -190°C at night. Another challenge for building the base on the Moon is ensuring that the ‘moon bricks’ provide adequate thermal insulation and resist radiation.
To make this possible, the Chinese team plans to send the moon bricks to the Chinese space station aboard the Tianzhou 9 mission, as mentioned earlier, where they will undergo mechanical and thermal resistance tests.
The return to Earth of the first brick is expected by the end of 2025. China also recently revealed a long-term plan for advancing space science, with goals that include building a permanent Chinese base on the Moon for research between 2028 and 2035.
China Has Been Investing In A Moon Base Since 2017
China plans to build a scientific research station on the Moon. The China National Space Administration (CNSA) is leading the construction of the International Lunar Research Station (ILRS), a grand project aiming for completion by 2050. However, the first phase of the lunar base is expected to be completed by 2035, marking an important step for lunar exploration and the development of new technologies.
The ILRS project began in 2017 and already has the support of over 40 signatories, demonstrating international interest in the development of this lunar station.
An important milestone was the Chang’e-6 mission, which successfully completed the delivery of essential materials for the construction of the base. This mission involved collaboration with the European Space Agency (ESA), which provided the first shipment of materials, signaling cooperation among major space powers.
Não damos conta de viver em sociedade na terra, então vamos pro espaço….
Esperamos que os chineses cheguem até a lua. A farça de 1969 não convence mais ninguém. Serão os 1° a realmente pisar na lua?
Qen dera se fosse verdade mais se realmente fosse já dá pra ver o que eles ia fazer com a lua também através da imagens que colocaram já está cheia de lixo pneus jogado pra todo lado o omen já está acabando con o lugar que vivemos e vai acabar con tudo que vier pela frente nunca vai existir segunda chance sempre vai acabar con tudo não cuida do que tedepende pra sobreviver
