EntertainmentNASA emailed a wrench to the ISS space station
You also know that the first 3D printer was put into space in September.
In addition to serving scientific research, there is a 3D printer in outer space that has just proved a benefit, when an astronaut needs something, email is only needed on the ground. For example, when astronaut Barry Wilmore needed a wrench, instead of having to wait for supplies, NASA on the ground mailed him a CAD file, he printed 3D, reassembled it and got it!
Specifically, this is a hand screwed the tube - or where there is also a pipe hand, you change the different hexagonal heads to screw the screw - the canopy fits. This screw has 20 details, it takes a few tens of minutes and after it is finished it works as well as required.
This is the first time a useful tool has been printed 3D in space and there will definitely be a lot of practical applications for this printer.
