It and all the others addressed that problem.

>A geodesic dome is both stronger while needing far less material.
No its not stronger, they picked this design for the strength and it held up in the torture test over the second best design.

Here it is at 1:45 being tested. Its unironically very effective.

I wouldn't be so sure

>For example the relatively recent test demonstration where the two hab teams printed out 1/3rd scale replicas of their designs, both teams had some issues with the applicator heads of their printers hanging a bit causing slumps in the prints.
That is why the winner came out on top, their composite material was stronger and didn't clog the head like the other teams cement. NASA is putting a lot of R&D into the building material and printing of lunar and martian regolith. Look at their swamp works program.

That project came in second in the contest and would actually work in practice. Its 3d printed from materials that can be gathered from the martian surface. They even built a 1/3 scale version under time constraints. You are retarded.

Which one is better.
