«Ex astris - scientia»
In order to print on a 3D printer and assemble a rocket launcher, there is only one technology left to unlock - 3D printing of solid—fuel charges for rocket launchers. And we, at "Rocket Systems Expansion", have made significant progress in this matter. Check it out: — https://3djet.ru — https://habr.com/ru/articles/681854 — https://www.kommersant.ru/doc/6453624 With this technology, it is possible to create an autonomous factory that prints custom RTDs anywhere in the space where there is access to electricity. But the planet Mars is of the greatest interest for the disclosure of the project's concept, since perchlorates (up to 1% of the soil composition) and iron oxide (up to 21% of the soil composition) are widely distributed on its surface — substances that are used in mixed rocket fuel, which we already know how to print on a 3D printer. The production of custom rocket engines on Mars from local raw materials is the starting point for expansion in the Solar System. The proposed plan: First of all, it is necessary to achieve TRL9 for 3D printing technology of solid-fuel rocket propellants. Next, we need to aggregate all the required technologies within the technological laboratory — an Autonomous Rocket Factory in the ISO container form factor. Working with such a laboratory will give the first practical results, on the basis of which it will be possible to draw conclusions about the feasibility of the idea.
