Re: Shiny parabolic or mirror use
Marspedia references Poor quality bricks can be made with simple compression, tho stronger bricks can be made with gentle heating. See Brick for more information. https://marspedia.org/Brick https://marspedia.org/Dust https://marspedia.org/Sand https://marspedia.org/Regolith here is the copilot outp...
