This viewgraph presentation reviews in this Roadmap for Developing a Lunar Microwave Facility an approach to determine the source of the enhanced microwave heating of Lunar Regolith. A set of microwave heating studies were proposed for a specially designed realistic simulant to determine optimum processing parameters. Apollo lunar soil will be used to validate the heating features found for the simulant. We have also introduced several possible designs for a future lunar microwave processing facility. In the future when sufficient funds become available, a microwave facility for processing regolith on the lunar surface will be ready to be buil
