What new materials are there?

Why on earth, sorry I know but I could not resist, would anyone make roads on the moon? Let alone 'glass like' roads. Creating habitat sructures possibly but roads?
 
As I get older there’s a sadness that I won’t be around to witness what’s to come. With a maximum 35 years left I so want to see a man walk on Mars.

Not to be melancholy at the chances but to me it would be a sign that humanity will survive to live across the galaxy maybe the universe.

Dust. It's very fine and very abrasive. If it gets into mechanical parts it wears at them badly. Uneven ground also puts a strain on mechanical parts - gravity is low but mass and inertia and the stress caused by shaking remain the same.
 
It’d make great concrete down here though.

Now this makes me wonder if you could get two go’s of combustion from one liquid:

A permanent lunar colony is stupid, after living a year in lunar gravity the colonists would not be able to live on earth again. It would be a one-way trip.
 
Less wear on skeletons for retirees.
A one-g habitat to control robots via telepresence would be nice.

This week, however, researchers report that with a new artificial intelligence (AI), they have predicted the ingredients and properties of another 2.2 million materials. In a companion study, a separate team has shown that such predicted materials can be made efficiently, again with the help of AI.

[...]

A different kind of AI might help synthesize more of GNoME’s predictions, another paper this week in Nature suggests. Researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, led by materials scientist Gerbrand Ceder, recently built an AI-driven robotics lab to make predicted new materials. Now, he and his colleagues report that this setup quickly learned to refine recipes for synthesizing new compounds predicted by the Materials Project algorithm. In 17 days, the robots successfully synthesized 41 materials out of 58 they attempted.

I'm not sure, but I suspect the nonwoven carrier material could be an aerogel. The carrier material can be compressed to less than one µ, so it has to be something like that.
