A new paper on in situ resource utilisation on Mars, which shows that gas discharges operating at atmospheric pressure on Mars are extremely strong candidates to produce O₂ efficiently from the locally available resources.
It was selected as Europhysics News Highlight and 2017 Highlights of PSST.
It then originated a Feature Article and made the cover of Europhyics News!
We are now building project OPTIMiSm to develop this idea!
