A test rocket made entirely of 3D-printed parts was launched from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida in March this year, NASA reported recently. Called Relativity Space Terran 1, the rocket was 100 feet tall and 7.5 feet wide.

NASA's Glenn Research Center in Cleveland developed a family of copper-based alloys for this purpose, which became known as Glenn Research Copper or simply GRCop. Optimized for high strength, thermal conductivity, and low cycle fatigue, GRCop was made using copper, chromium, and niobium. The newly developed alloys could tolerate temperatures up to 40 percent higher than traditional alloys and had high creep resistance- the ability to handle more stress and strain at high temperatures.
