NASA is initiating the LunaRecycle Challenge to tackle waste management during future lunar missions, aiming to reduce solid waste and enhance mission sustainability through innovative recycling solutions.
Phase 1 of the LunaRecycle Challenge requires teams to design solutions for a hypothetical lunar mission lasting 365 days, with submissions due by March 31, 2025.
In Phase 2, winning teams will develop a functioning prototype based on Phase 1 designs, with more details forthcoming after the first phase concludes.
Prizes for the challenge include $600,000 for the best physical prototype and $1.4 million for the best functioning prototype in Phase 2, emphasizing innovation.
