Re: Tell me more about the regolith coating.

"Regolith" is a term used to denote a covering of dirt over solid rock, it is essentially what we call "soil." So regolith is what we call soil on another planet, its just we don't call it "regolith" here on Earth. The regolith itself is a type of plastic sheeting sold in I believe 4'x8' segments, if you want to try it out, I think they sell it at Home Depot.
