But it can be used from a browser or the Prusa mobile app. There are some tradeoffs compared to community print profiles, like no custom supports, but fills the gap with other flexibilities like plating multiple files in one print. Prusa has hinted at a possible subscription option for project cloud storage, but not for now.
If 3D printing were as popular on earth as it seems to be off world, we'd be surrounded by 3D printed parts already. From these Michelin 3D printed rover wheels to NASA's Moon to Mars Planetary Autonomous Construction Technology (i.e. 3D printing with planet soil) to the new 3D printed rocket thrusters from X-Bow Systems that will get us there — in space tech, 3D printing is the method of choice.
