Scientists: Algae will help astronauts fly to the Red Planet due to oxygen production

in #mars7 years ago

Russian scientists have found out that algae will help astronauts fly to the Red Planet due to the production of oxygen. They have already created a photobioreactor capable of ensuring the existence of people in space.

Recent calculations have shown that a flight to the planet takes 500 days, and it is also necessary to have resources for life while on Mars. For such a flight it is necessary to use 58 tons, but missile installations are not able to transport such an amount of important cargo.

This equipment can solve the problem and grow algae of chlorella, becoming the first step in the biological system. Previously, the media reported that the Americans interrupted the experiments related to the imitation of the colonization of the object due to a state of emergency in the complex, but so far no one knows the details.
