You're out in the middle of the desert on red land. I'm holding a glass of testy tea. When blowing into the mug, you can see Mars' two moons, Phobos and Dimos, in the evening sky.

NASA Perseverance Rover on Mars: NASA

For a long period, the entire world attention was already captured by this breathtaking sight.

NASA was already focusing on making this a reality for a number of years. Since the pace at with (CO2) concentrations rise on Earth is ruining the environment, Mars may become our habitat. The rise in methane, which makes up 96.5% of Mars' environment, may be about to wreck the universe's natural environment. As a result, people would not be able to live on O2 in either way.

NASA will solve this stumbling block as well as realize the vision. O2 is most likely no longer an issue. How do you do it?

Perseverance, a NASA explorer, arrived on Mars several days earlier. Moxie, the rover's companion, was also there. Moxie has been dubbed "science's perfect find." Since this unit is capable of producing oxygen.

It was also hard to imagine producing o2 from nothing using air. As a result, NASA was never too positive about Moxie. experimental with perseverance, sent as just a model system. Moxie, but at the other hand, shocked everybody when he arrived on Mars. Has produced 500 mg of oxygen, enough for a 10 minutes’ breath of an astronaut. Isn't it unbelievable?

For the first time on Mars, Moxie was able to effectively produce oxygen. The picture was captured during the launch of Moxie in the Mars rover's belly prior to NASA's Perseverance launch. Reuters photo of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California, USA

Your analytical mind should be curious about Moxie's activity. Let me clarify in layman's terms.

Moxie functions similarly to a tree. Mars extracts carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during the first stage. Carbon dioxide (CO2) comprises two oxygen atoms, as we remember. Differentiate the oxygen atom utilizing extreme electricity and heat in the following process. The final move is to remove the oxygen that has been released in the air. You're really busy! The work has been completed.

The scale of the moxie sent with perseverance is presently very limited. It is futile to believe that we will be able to flood the whole globe with oxygen. However, with NASA's progress, it is estimated that another time Moxi will be sent to Mars, it will be 100 times larger than this time. Which can meet three-quarters of the world's oxygen demand.

After a few days, we'll meet on Mars. We'll sip tea while admiring the moonlight. I'll flush my lungs with oxygen and exclaim, "Aha! What happiness is in the air.”

There's nothing wrong with fantasizing. What do you think?

It is really amazing that how far humans have come and will go. Space traveling is not a story in science fiction anymore.

Yeah, it's not science fiction anymore. one day we'll go in Mars.
