Korea's Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology replicated the Moon's electrostatic surface environment for deep space exploration research.

Korea's Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology has successfully replicated the Moon's electrostatic surface environment on Earth, aiding deep space exploration efforts. Lunar missions face challenges due to the Moon's electrostatically charged surface, resulting from its thin atmosphere and exposure to solar radiation. The simulated environment will help researchers assess and understand potential issues in lunar missions.
