@nasa is testing #3Dprinting of #marshabitats using what NASA calls lavacrete

My thought is that they should call it #frodobe which is frozen adobe made from resources found on #Mars specifically fine regolith (aka dirt) and water that's extruded hot like #PLA in a 3D printer & freezes to build a structure. NASA calls this In Situ Resource Utilization ISRU as we're not sending buildings from #Earth
