.. and that would be done with a humble 3D printer mounted in a satellite.
Possibilties are huge , but is it really feasible/ doable?/

    I've never paid attention to the 3D building technology; but looks like it's finding application in most of the things. I was impressed by the nano-satellites but now 3D printed satellites are already underway. Feasible, is it? I don't know. I've given up on the world 'impossible' long time ago.

    Raw materials for building such satellites can always be taken from earth's surface. But none the less this is an amazing idea. 👍

    as soon as i read news I was like - ' ok so how much material is needed to build something in space??" I mean 3D printer cant just print out of nothing (in space - it is literally nothing), so raw materials , but themselves would pose other issues to deal with,
