If you saw the 2015 film ‘The Martian,’ you might recall main character Mark Watney (played by Matt Damon) mentioning something called an oxygenator…well, NASA’s newest device isn’t so far off from the sci-fi tech.
The Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment, better known as MOXIE, uses a technology called solid oxide electrolysis, and the goal? To produce oxygen from the Martian carbon-dioxide atmosphere for both propellant and breathing.
NASA is continuing to prepare for human exploration of Mars and is set to launch its next rover to the red planet in 2020. Seven instruments will be aboard the rover, six of which are focused on sample analysis like this SuperCam and a spectrometer called PIXL that’ll measure chemical signatures of Martian rocks. And MOXIE is the seventh.
We sat down with NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Instrument Systems Engineer Asad Aboobaker to find out more about how exactly MOXIE will make oxygen on Mars, check out this Focal Point to find out more.

NASA is preparing for human exploration of Mars, and MOXIE will demonstrate a way that future explorers might produce oxygen from the Martian atmosphere for propellant and for breathing.
Mars 2020 Mission Overview
mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/missio...
The Mars 2020 mission with its Perseverance rover is part of NASA's Mars Exploration Program, a long-term effort of robotic exploration of the Red Planet. The Mars 2020 mission addresses high-priority science goals for Mars exploration, including key Astrobiology questions about the potential for life on Mars.
Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

A solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is an energy conversion device that produces electricity by electrochemically combining a fuel and an oxidant across an ionic conducting oxide electrolyte.

    Why do you do illustrate the CO2 looking like water? It is is not a bipolar molecule due to to the double bindings between each oxygen and the carbon.

If you know the problem (no oxygen) along with knowing the atmosphere of the planet your going to, then why could we not use science to "filter" the outside of the atmosphere to an enclosed system that could properly build regulate and distribute the new "atmosphere" inside of the current atmosphere. Essentially creating a bubble. Its science. Its not easy, obviously, but we have the technology and resources to do this exact thing.

Granted that colony would have to exist in domes of some kind but sounds like they MIGHT have a way of producing a large amount of oxygen to fill domes to be constructed in the future. If seeds could be germinated in domes at that point I wonder how much more oxygen could be produced.

But unlike the Earth, N2 is only available in trace amounts (less than 1% of the very faint Martian atmosphere). This is obviously a problem with many straight forward solutions, and I'm sure that racks of O2 bottles filled by robot, will seem like Mothers Milk to Astronauts , yuou dont want to breath alot of stuff, and I dont think helium is easy to get there either. :)!

    They send a Mars Rover equiped with the Golden Oxygen maker... Sounds like a sci fi movie plot. I am seriously interested in what this experiment is going to achieve

    Why? Going into higher energy states is nothing special. You just need to pump energy into it.

    Sklawz Einstein it is abundant but due to dust storms and distance from sun, our energy output from solar will be much lower there then here, we’ll likely be using solar as more of a supplementary source of power while nuclear is the main source.

    They should definitely improve this device before running it for longer periods of time, especially for human settlement. Carbon monoxide being produced in equal quantity would poison life.
