Building a sustainable presence on the Moon requires more than rockets. For a sustained lunar presence, robust infrastructure will need to be built on the Moon that provide better thermal, radiation, and micrometeorite protection. ICON\u2019s development plans are following a \u201clive off the land\u201d approach by prioritizing the use of in-situ \/ native materials found on the Moon. From landing pads to habitats, these collective efforts are driven by the need to make humanity a spacefaring civilization.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_202646\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-202646\" style=\"width: 333px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/AA_NASAICON_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-202646\" src=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/AA_NASAICON_2-300x207.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"333\" height=\"230\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/AA_NASAICON_2-300x207.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/AA_NASAICON_2-500x345.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/AA_NASAICON_2-768x530.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/AA_NASAICON_2.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 333px) 100vw, 333px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-202646\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"> Another rendering showing the tech that can create infrastructure using lunar and Martian materials on the Moon. <\/span> <em><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Photo courtesy ICON<\/span><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In 2021, ICON was also awarded a subcontract through Jacobs supporting NASA\u2019s Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) as part of NASA\u2019s Crew Health and Performance Exploration Analog (CHAPEA) and delivered the world\u2019s first and only simulated Mars surface 3D-printed habitat.
