Last year, NASA created a microwave-size device attached to the Perseverance rover that converted carbon dioxide into 10 minutes of breathable oxygen. Now, physicists say they’ve come up with a way to create more oxygen, potentially in a smaller package.
Last year, NASA achieved something science fiction writers have been dreaming about for decades: It created oxygen on Mars. A microwave-size device attached to the agency’s Perseverance rover converted carbon dioxide into 10 minutes of breathable oxygen. Now, physicists say they’ve come up with a way to use electron beams in a plasma reactor to create far more oxygen, potentially in a smaller package.
The experiment has been a successful proof of concept. But to work, MOXIE needs to pressurize and heat martian air—requiring extra parts that consume energy and make it bulky.
