Simulating oxygen production on Mars for the Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment

, 2020
The Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment (MOXIE) represents the first time that NASA is demonstrating In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) on the surface of another planetary body. MOXIE will produce oxygen from atmospheric CO2 on Mars.

In Situ Resource Utilization: Excavation to Support Other Operations

Space 2002 and Robotics 2002, 2002
Missions to surfaces of planetary bodies and asteroids, whether manned or robotic, will encounter dust, soil, and rock fragments, possibly combined with ice, which will affect mechanical operations. Contact with these materials may be incidental or intentional in the case of digging or drilling operations.

Hybrid Propulsion In-Situ Resource Utilization Test Facility Development

50th AIAA/ASME/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference, 2014
Hybrid propulsion could be a potential game changing technology for several Mars applications, such as Mars Sample Return (MSR) and human exploration. A flexible hybrid test facility has been built at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory to provide data relevant to the design of such systems.

Membranes on Mars for In-Situ Resource Utilization Processes

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2004
<div class="htmlview paragraph">The goal of this project is the development and characterization of synthetic membranes for the separation and purification of CO₂ from the Martian atmosphere for in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) applications such as in-situ propellant production.

Solar Energy for In-Situ Resource Utilization in Space

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2003
In the past 10 years, Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) has been developing the Optical Waveguide (OW) system for solar energy utilization. In this system, solar radiation is collected by the concentrator which transfers the concentrated solar radiation to the OW transmission line.

Mars sample return mission with in-situ resource utilization

Journal of Propulsion and Power, 1995
A Mars sample return mission has been proposed where oxygen for the return propellant would be produced using the Martian atmosphere. A mass analysis of an in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) oxygen plant shows that significant reductions in landed mass and mission costs can be attained by using methane carried from Earth and oxygen produced on Mars as

Combustion Synthesis Technology Applied to In-situ Resource Utilization

2006
Abstract : Solution combustion synthesis is different from solid and gas combustion in the presence of water. Fuels form natural resources were applied to the solution combustion of "SrAl2O4: Eu, Dy" compounds and properties of the products were studied.
