Hmm, ... this theory that's kicking around about melting moon dust with
a microwave oven- its all very well melting a few mg of moondust in a
1kW home microwave oven, but by my calculations to melt 1 ton of moon
dust you would need over 200MW of microwave power! So that's really
practical then.....(if you have got a couple of spare PWR nuclear
reactors with you on the moon!!!)

On that note can anyone tell me if concrete sets in space?
