Kirsch 95 Report post Posted November 25, 2014 I honestly do not have a problem with the naming. Anyway, Thread Revived! Haha, we should have a thread-reviving project of something Bill Nye the Science guy~ BILL NYE THE SCIENCE GUY Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill Nye the Science guy SCIENCE RULES! Bill Nye the Science guy Inertia is a property of matter Bill Bill Bill Billillillil Nye the science guy (Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill!) t-7 seconds Bill Nye the Science guy lol. Yes. This. Bill Nye is just so amazing...3D printers are really cool. I went to the Aerospace Engineering Club interest meeting today, and the guy talked about how you could build one yourself. O.o Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But practically, the greatest use of it is for ISS (International Space Station) and deep space missions where recycling is a must (You don't want to send resupplies to deep space missions since it costs a lot) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure the 3D printers anyone has right now can only print off types of plastic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure the 3D printers anyone has right now can only print off types of plastic.The food printer right now is still being researched but they once printed a pizza lol http://www.nasa.gov/directorates/spacetech/home/feature_3d_food_prt.htm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Metantei Kiddo 147 Report post Posted November 25, 2014 Yes. If I ever become a successful astronaut, I want to be sure I have a gourmet 3D printer at the space station.Sadly, space station is only up until 2020. I hope you can reach in time xD Say hi to us if you got there xDI also seriously wanted to be an astronaut before but I gave up on it lol. Plus, I'm a bit color blind and it's not allowed.

Yeah, I know (hence the 'if'). Let me dream, 'K? xDI'm concerned about my vision. I don't need glasses, but I'm guessing they would prefer 20/20 people.

(Makes me think about those special agents ) anyway, yeah of course but it's not like they're gonna base it off all there.

I should learn some Russian while I'm at it. That's where the astronauts are launching from, right? I forgot if it was because NASA was under-budget or something...

Self-defense against aliens yeah. But soon it'll be changing and yes, NASA was under budget. I dunno what the government there in US is doing to Space Exploration, they seem not that interested.
