#3d printing in the Vacuum of Space Now Possible from Made In Space At the end of last year,
Made In Space made what was a huge achievement for 3d printing in space by sending their Zero G 3d printer, capable of 3d printing without gravity, to the International space station.
There, it has printed 3d numerous components, including a now famous wrench and twenty-three other prints that have returned
but the true goal of NASA and Made In Space has been to 3d print in vacuum of space itself.
Today, Made In Space has announced that such a feat has now been proven possible through a series of tests performed here On earth.
Made In Space has been working on a commercial 3d printing lab that will be flown to the ISS later this year.

This is particularly evident in space-based projects, such as those carried out by Made in Space.
However, long before extra-planetary manufacturing, on-site manufacturing will prove useful to produce useful tools in remote areas of our own planet.

Complete structural optimization is now possible in space. With the ability to 3d print in space, humanity will be able to fabricate objects that are too large to launch due to size and weight restrictions.
For instance NASA Spiderfab project intends to 3d print the underlying structures for such objects as antennas and solar panels.

#Researchers Apply Nanopore Gene Sequencing to Proteins University of Pennsylvania researchers have made strides toward a new method of gene sequencing a strand of DNA bases are read as they are threaded through a nanoscopic hole.

In this technique, researchers align a large number of images along reference points in three-dimensional space and then average them into a single, characteristic image.

Canadian space firm Thoth has outlined plans for an elevator to space, potentially saving huge amounts of fuel and money that form part of the vast cost of launching rockets into orbit.
The space tower would be more than 20 times the height of Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world.
President and chief executive of Thoth Caroline Roberts claims the space tower will also include self-landing rocket technologies to herald a new era of space transportation.
Referring to the powered landing system being developed by Space X, she said:''Landing on a barge at sea level is a great demonstration,
'From the top of the tower, space planes will launch in a single stage to orbit,
'While other designs for space elevators have involved complex designs using graphene or carbon nanotubes, the Thoth design reportedly uses inflatable sections
This is not the first time a space elevator has been proposed, with many engineers considering it as a possibility
-and applied it to the concept of an elevator that takes humans into space. When building any tall structure-from gothic cathedrals to skyscrapers
and eventually a space elevator-the sturdiness and balance comes from its centre of gravity. By creating strong, far-reaching foundations deep into the Earth,
The design by Thoth seeks to get around the complication of geostationary orbit by limiting its height to just 12 miles (20km) instead of the full 62 milles (100 km) considered the end of our atmosphere and the beginning of space e
