Breakthrough In Converting Carbon Dioxide To Oxygen On Mars

NASA's Perseverance rover has made a breakthrough in converting the thin atmospheric carbon dioxide present on Mars to oxygen. A toaster-size, experimental instrument aboard the six-wheeled robot on the Martian surface called the Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment (MOXIE) accomplished the task on Tuesday, 60 days after the mission landed. NASA said that the technology demonstrat
