One promising way to meet modern industrial challenges is by using additive manufacturing (AM) processes, such as powder bed fusion and other emerging techniques. Developed in concert with numerous manufacturers, the DRAMA initiative includes the new powder bed fusion AM facility mentioned previously.

The thousands of rocket launches needed to loft and maintain these space power stations would dump lots of soot, carbon dioxide, and other pollutants into the stratosphere, with uncertain climate impacts. In that respect, beamed power from space is like nuclear fusion, except at least 25 years behind.

Advanced Climate Control Auxiliary Load Reduction. Development of more established techniques such as conventional fusion welding, riveting, friction joining and ultrasonic joining is underway and not supported by this AOI; this AOI seeks to support early stage development and demonstration of completely new techniques. mm and 5 mm.
