How Making Oxygen on the Moon Will Revolutionize Space Exploration
The Moon’s surface is covered with a layer of fine dust and rocky debris known as regolith. Interestingly, this regolith is rich in oxygen-containing minerals. Scientists have developed a method called molten regolith electrolysis to extract oxygen from these minerals. This process involves heating the lunar soil to about 950°C and then passing an electric current through it. Making Oxygen on the Moon
