Can Outer Space Research Lead us to Fuel on Earth?
they say extra-terrestrial trips cost a ton of money, but we learn things from these journeys, and learning how to efficiently get fuel from Mars might lead to a solution to help planet Earth… I was watching the Science channel recently, and they were talking about trying to come up with a feasible plan for a manned trip to Mars. Because it takes a lot of fuel to get people there and back, people have been coming up with a solution for creating fuel on Mars. If we sent a small, unmanned ship to Mars first with equipment that could start using resources abundant on Mars to create fuel for a manned trip back home. Now, that sounds like a cool idea, creating gas. I mean, if we are needing fuel for heating our homes and running out SUVs, trying to create fuel seems like a great idea. But I m sure that the composition of the atmosphere or ground on Mars, that makes our red neighbor a more likely place for creating fuel like this. I watched this show, and I looked around on line for more i
