SPACE ANCHORS FOR USE ON THE MOON, MARS AND OTHER EXTRATERRESTRIAL BODIES

原文（中国語）

A space anchor, as a simple type of space foundation intended for use on an extraterrestrial body, comprises at least one anchoring part connected to a driving part via a connecting element. The driving part is designed to install the anchoring part at the desired position within the lunar or Martian regolith, also referred to as lunar soil, under space geotechnical conditions that involve different gravitational forces compared to Earth's. Additionally, the driving part enables connection to an external structure as part of space construction on the extraterrestrial body. Both the anchoring and connecting parts are manufactured from a polymer using 3D or 4D printing technology.
