Engineers have developed a revolutionary concrete material called StarCrete that uses potato starch as a binding agent instead of human blood. The new formulation achieves compressive strengths over twice that of ordinary concrete, potentially solving construction challenges for Mars missions.

Breakthrough in Extraterrestrial Construction Materials

Researchers at the University of Manchester have developed a new concrete material that reportedly demonstrates twice the strength of traditional concrete, potentially revolutionizing construction approaches for future Mars missions. According to reports published in the journal Open Engineering, the material dubbed “StarCrete” utilizes potato starch as a binding agent mixed with simulated Martian dust to achieve remarkable compressive strength.
