Researchers 3D print moon rover wheel prototype with NASA

By A Mystery Man Writer

Researchers at the Department of Energy
Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory, in collaboration with NASA, are taking additive manufacturing to the final frontier by 3D printing the same kind of wheel as the design used by NASA for its robotic lunar rover, demonstrating the technology for specialized parts needed for space exploration.
