What is NASA doing to address the issue of lunar dust? The Lunar Development and Test Facility at NASA’s Johnson Space Center will test spacesuits, spacecraft components, and hardware with conditions similar to those found on the Moon. Teams will also be able to experiment with regolith simulant and vacuum chambers to help NASA develop dust mitigation technologies and countermeasures.
