LFLunarFoundry

Lunar industrial infrastructure

Build industry from lunar material.

LunarFoundry models the extraction, refining, power, and infrastructure plans needed to turn regolith into usable off-world supply—before you freeze mass to orbit.

The launch mass problem

The Moon cannot become infrastructure if every kilogram comes from Earth. These are the constraints mission teams hit first.

Every kilogram from Earth is expensive

Launch and landing margins dominate lunar programs. If construction and propellant precursors ride uphill, timelines stretch and architectures shrink.

Lunar construction needs local inputs

Aggregate, glassy phases, metals, and oxygen have to come from regolith—or you are building a logistics chain, not a surface economy.

Power limits shape industry

Night survival, thermal swings, and process duty cycles set the real ceiling on tons per year—not slide-deck optimism.

Resource uncertainty blocks planning

Programs stall when teams cannot agree on yield envelopes, equipment mass, or what “pilot scale” actually implies for the grid.

Mission teams need phased infrastructure

Survey, pilot extraction, refining, storage, and export each carry different interfaces. Skip a phase and the next one fails in integration.

Lunar resource infrastructure simulator

Model how much oxygen, metal, or glass a lunar site can produce before you design the mission around it. Select region, material, power architecture, extraction route, landed mass, duration, and objective—get yield, power, phases, economics, and risk in one pass.

Material systems

Oxygen

Propellant / life-support precursor from regolith and polar volatile access patterns.

Silicon

PV and electronics feedstock—linked to beneficiation and melt discipline.

Aluminum

Structural metal from anorthite-rich routes; ties to electrolysis and thermal budgets.

Iron

Reduction from ilmenite and oxide phases; anchor for tooling and magnetic beneficiation.

Glass feedstock

Agglutinate-driven glass for in-situ casting and binder pathways.

Construction aggregate

Sintered regolith and graded fill for roads, berms, and robotic construction lanes.

FAQ

Is this flight software or a qualification tool?
No. LunarFoundry is a planning and communication layer—parametric envelopes for trades, not a substitute for hardware test or mission assurance.
Do you call external APIs?
No paid APIs. The simulator runs entirely in your session and on your saved plans in the bundled database.
Can we export assumptions?
Save missions from the demo to the dashboard; each plan stores inputs and outputs as JSON for your program data room.

Turn regolith assumptions into infrastructure plans.

Run the simulator, save missions to your dashboard, and bring a single artifact into your next program review.
