The mass driver is a proposed structure designed to accelerate payloads to high speeds, enabling them to be launched into space more efficiently. Constructing a mass driver on the Moon could offer numerous benefits for future space infrastructure. It has the potential to reduce the cost of sending spacecraft propellant to space-based depots and pave the way for industrializing the Moon, making lunar mining a viable option.
Will we see this innovative technology become a reality on the lunar surface by the 60s?
