As we push toward the next phase of human space exploration, there’s a lot of focus on using local materials at our final destination. Anything we can find or make on the Moon, Mars, or elsewhere is ...

A new breakthrough in oxygen generation technology using magnetic forces could dramatically change how astronauts survive on future missions to the Moon and Mars. As detailed in the peer-reviewed ...

Carbon dioxide plasma created at the Laboratoire de Physique des Plasmas, Ecole Polytechnique in France and used in the research on harnessing and processing local resources to generate products on ...

We want to go to Mars — problem is, there isn't a lot of oxygen, and transporting it from Earth is complex and expensive. According to a new study though, an AI system can synthesize oxygen from ...

A new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience found evidence of oxygen production near polymetallic nodules located deep in the ocean. Called dark oxygen, this oxygen is being produced ...

For the first time, researchers have managed to isolate and directly observe individual oxygen atoms inside liquid water, catching a substance that usually hides behind the familiar H2O formula in the ...

Alongside advances in space exploration, we’ve recently seen much time and money invested into technologies that could allow effective space resource utilisation. And at the forefront of these efforts ...

Take a deep breath. Now take nine more. According to new research, the amount of oxygen in one of those 10 breaths was made possible thanks to a newly identified cellular mechanism that promotes ...
