Hasen't someone already developed a "manufactory" that processs the
lunar regolith and produces solar panels? It seems like I have
read
that somewhere.
NASA Istitute of Advanced Concepts (NIAC) contract: the proposed cell
designs are low in quality but you get a good leverage of assets using
complete automated construction. The construction method remains
theoretical; but the final report - New Architecture for Space Solar Power
Systems: Fabrication of Silicon Solar Cells Using In-Situ Resources
Organization - is online @

All the best,
