E1.04 - Lunar Concrete Mixer
Engineering NASA Lunar Concrete Mixer Electronics
Sponsor: Nasa Minds & The Ingram Hall Makerspace
Student Team: Ali Kobeissi, Joni McCawley, Tyler Nuckols, Daniela Salazar
Faculty Advisor: Mr. Mark Welker
Our Lunar Concrete Mixer is designed for the production of geopolymer concrete “moon bricks” using lunar regolith simulant. Building on the NASA MINDS team’s prior achievements, this project has evolved into a fully integrated mechanical and electrical system that enables concrete fabrication directly from a rover. Our electrical team’s goal is to revamp the control system to improve device integration, including the implementation of sensors and a user interface. By combining virtual control with physical wiring solutions, this innovative approach will significantly enhance lunar construction experimentation.
