Learn more about the 3D space printer that could help make space missions safer and open the doors for more in-space manufacturing.

Update: Prusa has released a new version of the MK4, the MK4S. It's an incremental upgrade but adds a lot of great features.

Already, 3D printing in space is underway. On the International Space Station, astronauts use 3D printers to make tools and spare parts, such as ratchet wrenches, clamps and brackets.

3D printing is poised to change the nature of space fabrication forever. See photos of 3D printing projects for space missions and rocket parts.

Curiously Realistic Ironically, the 3D printing shown in Lost in Space might actually be a bit too realistic.

In-space 3D printing research paves way for future in-orbit fabricators University of Glasgow researchers have demonstrated a patented process that can effectively 3D print in low-Earth gravity with ...

The future of space travel requires new technologies and additive manufacturing, more commonly known as 3D printing, may hold the key.

In an experiment that sounds about as safe as bobbing for fries, ESA carried out the first-ever 3D metal printing in space aboard the International Space Station (ISS). Built with Airbus, the ...

With growing interest in additive manufacturing in food, tools in space, and housing construction 3D printing is worth exploring further.

Innovative startup Space Foundry has been talking up what could be the next major step on from 3D printing, namely plasma printing. Space Foundry is the brainchild of Ram Prasad Gandhiraman and ...

NASA and Made in Space have teamed up to build a 3D printer that works in zero gravity. They plan on shipping it up to the International Space Station late next year.
