The American space agency is funding research into the large livable spheres which would be created in situ, the Telegraph reports. Tiny pieces of so-called lunar glass - a component of the moon's soil, or regolith, along with rocks and mineral fragments - would be collected upon arrival from Earth. The material would be melted down using the same technology as in a domestic microwave oven, along with a'smart microwave furnace'.

Moon dust could help solve global warming, study says
It sounds like the stuff of science fiction but some experts think it may be the answer to saving Earth from climate catastrophe. Scientists in the US say dust launched from the moon could be a good way of blocking sunlight and alleviating global warming. According to their new study, moon dust would intercept a proportion of sunlight before it reaches our planet, acting as a'temporary sunshade'. Once the dust dissipates and floats away after a few days, more would be launched from the moon, allowing constant relief from the sun's light and heat. How exactly the dust would be launched from the moon is yet to be determined – although it could potentially be flung up using some kind of catapult.
The 'moon bricks' made from lunar dust that could build mankind's first home on another planet
They are the bricks that could build mankind's first home on another planet. European Space Agency officials have revealed the latest'moon bricks' that could soon be used to construct a lunar habitat. They say the bricks are the starting point to building up a permanent lunar outpost and breaking explorers' reliance on Earth supplies. This 1.5 tonne building block was produced as a demonstration of 3D printing techniques using lunar soil. The surface of the Moon is covered in grey, fine, rough dust.
