Dr. Paul van Susante of Michigan Technological University, a past guest (link below), returns to the Cold Star Project. We're discussing his participation in a number of investigative projects and NASA challenges related to powering our first projects on the Moon. Host Jason Kanigan asks Paul about the:   LuSTR grant NASA Watts on the Moon centennial challenge phase I, where they won the $100k grand prize for scenario 2. They submitted to Phase II, level 1 and were selected as one of 7 teams to advance to level 2 and received $200k NASA Break the Ice challenge centennial challenge phase I where they won a runner up prize ($25k). They submitted an entry to Break the Ice phase II, level 1 and were last month selected as one of 15 teams to advance to level 2 (all US teams (13) got $38.5k) Winning several other grants and are currently working on those related to landing pad construction, site preparation, hardware testing in their dusty thermal vacuum chamber as well.

Paul van Susante - How Are We Going to Power Our First Projects On the Moon? - CSP S05E06

In this episode with special guest Paul van Susante, Assistant Professor at Michigan Tech University, we discussed many of the challenges that are unique to Mars for ISRU. Challenges such as: The differences between Lunar and Martian regolith.The ease of extracting water in high enough concentrations from regolith.The technological barriers we need to cross to carry out effective, scalable ISRU on Mars and other planetary bodies.

ISRU | Paul van Susante | #05

Dr. Paul van Susante comes with the heritage of the Colorado School of Mines, but is a professor at Michigan Technological University. He is well-known in the Lunar and Mars construction &amp; ISRU field, contributing to CLASS and as co-Investigator on several experiments.     On the Cold Star Project with host Jason Kanigan we discuss:  what properties and result of the lunar regolith Paul is focusing on how his background in robotics and mining terrestrially, and at the Colorado School of Mines, applies to the new environments of Luna and Mars details of projects he has worked on the Mining INnovation Enterprise (MINE), which Paul founded what the Planetary Surface Technology Development Lab is all about factors and considerations, materials and processes, he believes are most important for next steps in ISRU on the Moon and Mars.
