Project Scoping
Define the validation pathway, materials options, manufacturability limits, likely cost, and testing sequence.
Loon Materials
Materials concepts are developed toward manufacturable specimens, independent testing, and practical application.
Primary Materials Work
The current focus is a lattice-based insulation concept intended to increase thermal path length while maintaining structural continuity.
Define the validation pathway, materials options, manufacturability limits, likely cost, and testing sequence.
Explore printable lattice specimens suitable for controlled thermal and manufacturing evaluation.
Move toward independent testing of thermal performance, print fidelity, and material behavior.
Material Families
Candidate materials may include cementitious systems, fiber-reinforced mixes, cellulose-based composites, hemp-based materials, biopolymers, or printable surrogate materials recommended by collaborators.
