Pretty interesting. How come they can get 1000c in space but not on earth? Doesnt the vacuum of space make it hard to retain heat?
The article doesn't state they can't reach that temperature down on earth, and many processes do. It's really not the jist of the article. Space manufacturing is interesting for the micro-gravity and better vacuum/less contamination. .
