Astronauts 3D-print first metal part
First-ever 3D metal printing in space achieved on ISS
In an experiment that sounds about as safe as bobbing for fries, ESA carried out the first-ever 3D metal printing in space aboard the International Space Station (ISS). Built with Airbus, the Metal 3D Printer completed the first of four test shapes.
3D Printing in Space: Astronauts Manufacture First Metal Part on the International Space Station
In a groundbreaking advancement for space exploration, astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) have successfully 3D-printed a metal part in space for the first time. This achievement marks a major milestone in the development of in-orbit manufacturing capabilities,
Astronauts 3D-print 1st metal part while on ISS
The accomplishment "paves the way for long-distance and long-duration missions where creating spare parts, construction components, and tools on demand will be essential."
Scientists print 3D metal parts in space for the first time — a key ability for long-distance long-duration missions
Scientists on the International Space Station (ISS) have successfully 3D printed a metal part in space - an out-of-this-world first. The achievement is significant, as this 3D fabrication capability is thought to be key for the success of future long-duration missions.
ISS Astronauts 3D Print Metal in Orbit for the First Time
Astronauts from the European Space Agency (ESA) have managed to 3D-print items out of metal for the first time, the agency recently announced. Until this breakthrough, orbital additive processes could only build stuff using plastic filament.
