Housing ranks high among the numerous challenges that still need to be overcome before humans can colonize Mars. The brave pioneers that make the six-month voyage to the Red Planet will need a place to reside as soon as they land. While the optimal solution would be to have the structures ready before they get there, it has thus far been a challenge given that most automated construction robots have never made it out of the laboratory. Now, there may be a glimmer of hope thanks to Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s (MIT) newly unveiled Digital Construction Platform (DCP).

    I think 3d printing is really amazing because it can build anything and it can help build structures on Mars. I was astonished when they said it only took 14 hours to print a 12 foot tall dome! Lastly, I really think that how it can help humans that when they were born may have had something wrong with them it can print things like skin, an ear, and things that can help your heart was really amazing.

      It's really cool that we came this far with 3d printing and building dome buildings on mars.I loved the video.

        Both of the stories are going to try to send a 3D printer to mars so the pioneers can have buildings to stay at.

          This artical is really inspiring because 3d printing is really cool because You can make a robot out of printing. It is also really inspiring because they printed a 12 foot dome and it took 14 hours to print. Last I think it is really cool because the brave Pioneers that make the six month voyage to the red planet.
