By smelting synthetic Moon dust, Blue Origin created solar cells

Whether or whether Blue Origin sends a lander to the Moon, it might play an important role in maintaining lunar activities. Jeff Bezos’ spaceflight business has shown the ability to manufacture solar cells and transmission cables from artificial Moon regolith. To extract essential elements, the Blue Alchemist approach use molten electrolysis to remove the lunar soil’s aluminium, iron, and silicon from bonded oxygen. With just sunlight and the reactor’s silicon, the method may create solar cells, cover glass, and aluminium wire.
