原位资源利用是指收集、处理、储存和使用人类或机器人空间探索过程中遇到的材料，以替代从地球带来的材料，从而以降低的总体成本和风险完成使命的关键需求。NASA首次建立了主流的ISRU技术开发计划，将这种方法纳入月球和火星的长期探索。该计划包括开发挖掘和收集月球风化层的能力，包括嵌入的挥发性物质，以及在目前计划于2020年初开始的延长人类任务期间生产氧气以提供推进和生命支持消耗品。
In-Situ Resource Utilization is the collection, processing, storing and use of materials encountered in the course of human or robotic space exploration that replace materials that would otherwise be brought from Earth to accomplish a mission critical need at reduced overall cost and risk. For the first time, a mainstream ISRU technology development program has been established by NASA to incorporate this approach into extended duration exploration of the moon and Mars. The program includes the development of capabilities to perform excavation and collection of lunar regolith, including imbedded volatile materials, and the production of oxygen to supply propulsion and life support consumables during the extended human missions currently planned to begin in the early 2020’s.
