... materials relatively abundant in space? - nothing is abundant in space except solar wind and solar insolation.

Asteroids are also abundant in space, which happen to have a lot of elements like silicon, oxygen, and aluminium. Hence, those materials are relatively abundant in space. How would you word it instead? Bryan 04:17, 26 Apr 2004 (UTC)

[edit] In space?

The concept of powder met in space is interesting but detracts from the main article somewhat. Reading this article prom the perspective of wanting to know what powder met is I found it difficult wadeing through the conjecture of how space may offer advantagous conditions. Is this discussion better moved to a discrete sub section perhaps titled "opertunities for powder metallurgy in space"?

It's a technical and dense, but hardly conjecture. It shouldn't be removed or moved, and seems quite at home in the "History and capabilities" section. At best, someone who is more familiar with the section should spend more time expanding the section to make it easier to read. - Toastydeath 02:13, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
