Abstract

Ink compositions for fabricating objects from planetary regoliths and objects fabricated from the ink compositions are provided. The objects include flexible, elastomeric objects and hard objects. Also provided are methods, including three-dimensional (3D) printing methods, for fabricating objects using the ink compositions. The ink compositions comprise a natural planetary regolith, such as an extraterrestrial regolith, a graded solvent system, and an elastomeric polymer binder.
