Abstract: What if the key to cheaper, lighter spacecraft is not aluminium but a metal that burns, corrodes, and challenges everything we know about aerospace engineering? THINK talks to Danjel Grima from the Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing of Magnesium for Satellites (WAAMMS) team at the University of Malta to find out the answer.
