Water on Mars

Mars may hold a massive water reservoir, enough to flood the planet up to nine feet. Mars may be hiding a vast stash of water beneath the Medusae Fossae Formation (MFF) near its equator. This ice-rich deposit could be the largest known water reservoir in this part of Mars, with an estimated volume comparable to Earth’s Red Sea. Water on Mars could be used for drinking, oxygen generation, and even fuel production, reducing reliance on Earth-based supplies.

Water Ice Has Officially Been Found On Mars:

This image, captured by ESA’s Mars Express, Mars Korolev crater, an 82-kilometer-wide structure located in the northern lowlands of Mars. Korolev crater on Mars resembles a vast field of snow but is actually filled with ice. The crater, located in Mars’ northern lowlands near the Olympia Undae dune fields, spans 82 kilometers and has a central ice mound up to 1.8 kilometers thick that remains year-round

Martian Hydrogen fuel and Oxygen through electrolysis 

Martian soil, enables the production of hydrogen fuel and life-support oxygen on Mars through electrolysis of perchlorate brines. Perchlorate (ClO4) salts, we have discovered, are common on Mars. Our Martian brine electrolyzer radically changes the logistical calculus of missions to Mars.

Martian Silicon

Mars’ most valuable product will be inventions:

Terrafab Manufacturing 

Starlink satellites

Martian Iron Mining

Carbothermic Reduction/Pyrolysis: Researchers have successfully produced pure iron by heating simulated Martian soil, or regolith, to 1000∘C within a Martian atmospheric environment.

Martian Mineral Resources 

Raw materials harvested by Mars-based asteroid miners. There are also plentiful mineral resources on Mars including iron, titanium, nickel, aluminum, sulfur, chlorine and calcium. 

Martian Energy

Settlers will be forced to innovate when it comes to developing fusion plants for energy. Use supercritical CO2 turbines to generate power.

Solar Panels - Blue Alchemist

Helion Fusion Energy

Martian innovations

All those innovations can then be exported back to Earth.

Terraforming Mars 

The planet’s lack of a protective magnetic field means the solar wind will continue stripping its atmosphere and water, reverting our changes to Mars or constantly degrading them.

To truly terraform Mars, we would need to fix its magnetic field—or lack thereof. A magnetic field placed at point called L1 between the Sun and Mars, where their gravities roughly cancel out, could in theory encompass Mars and protect it from the solar wind. A magnetic field of 10,000 to 20,000 Gauss would sufficiently shield Mars against the solar wind.  We can currently put a field of about 2,000 Gauss at the Sun-Mars L1 point.
