Missions to Mars in the coming decades are likely to require local production of fuel, breathable air, and fertilizer. In this issue of Chem, Kelly and co-workers use microwave plasma to co-produce oxygen and NO_x for fertilizer with high energy efficiency under simulated conditions corresponding to those on the Perseverance rover.

通过微波等离子体从火星大气中获取肥料和氧气

未来几十年的火星任务可能需要在当地生产燃料、可呼吸的空气和肥料。在本期Chem中，Kelly 和他的同事在与恒心漫游车相对应的模拟条件下，使用微波等离子体共同生产氧气和 NO _x用于肥料，具有高能效。
