Lava tubes—massive underground tunnels formed by ancient lava flows—offer a glimpse into potential human habitats under the lunar surface. Media Lab researchers, with support from our industry collaborator Castrol, recently visited one of the world’s largest lava tubes, in the Canary Islands, to test an innovative 3D imaging platform that could be used to create VR representations of lava tubes on the moon.
