Scientists have come up with an intriguing plan to create moon roads that requires blasting lunar soil with lasers.
Scientists have come up with a unique plan to create moon roads by using concentrated sunlight directed into specific areas using huge lenses. Based on experiments run on Earth, concentrated sunlight can act as a laser, melting the lunar soil into a material that could be used to create roads. Creating roads would unlock some additional ways to traverse the Moon, especially since NASA and others want to create lunar bases.
