ESA partners with Lego to develop 3D-printed "Space Bricks" from meteorite dust for lunar construction testing.

The European Space Agency (ESA) has partnered with Lego to develop "Space Bricks", 3D-printed blocks made using meteorite dust. These bricks will serve as a test for building structures on the Moon and are inspired by the iconic Lego System-in-Play. Fifteen of these ESA Space Bricks will be displayed in select Lego stores globally, demonstrating how space dust can be used to create construction materials.
