can we use ceramic used in aircrafts engine for making homes at mars?

Answer 1

I'm sure that we could but why would we choose the most expensive material around? We could also make our breakfast bowls out of it too.

Answer 2

Hi. Ceramics in aircraft are used because of the light weight and strength, and the fact that a ceramic part can reduce the load on other parts which makes for a better engine. On Mars (or the Moon) engineers will use whatever material is locally available which suits the needs of the task. Ceramics may be best for shelter or power generation etc., but we may find better materials that are, again, locally available.

Answer 3

The simple answer is yes, but there is something much MUCH better. On Mars there are great tunnels which, when inside are almost cathedral-like.

Mars was volcanic - Olympus Mons is the largest volcano in our Solar Syatem. When lava spewed out, the surface cooled faster than that underneath. The lava beneath this crust continued to flow, and flowed away, leaving rock many metres thick, with empty space below. All you would need to do is make 2 walls - maybe 5 kilometres apart say - to make an underground city. The walls would need to be airtight, and would probably be done in sections. Fill it with air, and voila!

So, it would be cheaper than ceramics. You would also get cosmic ray protection and pretty ood physical protection. And not just a big area, but easy to do b comparison.

Answer 4

I think there is no need to use such an expensive materials, I believe we can obtain enough rocks in mars to make a homes at Mars.
We just need to make it airtight, we dont need to make it as heat resistance as aircraft ceramics.
