Meet Jiaen Jiang, the 16-year-old Texas student who built an electrostatic “magnet” to capture hazardous Moon dust and won $25,000
- Jiang's project, called the Moondust Magnet, uses a bipolar interdigitated electrode array to create controlled electric fields that can attract and capture both charged and neutral particles of lunar regolith.
- The system is intended for use inside habitat airlocks, where dust carried in on astronauts' suits and equipment could othe
