Thanks! We are also going to make carbon negative building materials to remove CO2 that has already been emitted. Really anything now made from petroleum is potentially replaceable with air mined CO2 and renewable electricity. Will start with gasoline.


Automatic factory on Mars?


You could make a lot of stuff from the CO2 in the Martian atmosphere, for sure!


Not a chemist, but as far as I understand the process you're using to process the CO2 also needs water or at least some other source of hydrogen? Where would you get that from on Mars? (Sure, there is water on Mars but not in the atmosphere.)


Most likely subsurface ice
