Researchers Propose A Way To Produce Rocket Fuel On Mars
In a recent study, titled “Designing the bioproduction of Martian rocket propellant via a biotechnology-enabled situ resource utilization strategy”, published in the Nature Communications journal, researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology outlined a concept that will allow humans to create rocket fuel on Mars using the planet’s native resources. These include carbon dioxide (CO2), sunlight, and frozen water, all of which are already known to be available on the Red Planet....
