Kosuke Ikeya is a PhD student in Earth Science and Engineering at Imperial College London and has an MSc in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan and an MEng in Engineering Sciences and Design from Tokyo Institute of Technology. His research at Imperial focuses on Space Resource Utilisation (SRU), also known as In-Situ Resource Utilisation (ISRU), on the moon, which is an act of creating products, such as oxygen, to support astronauts from the soil on the moon, regolith. In this webinar, he will be talking about why SRU is important for human exploration on the moon and Mars, what are the challenges that we, space engineers and scientists, are facing, and how we tackle these challenges.
