MAJOR BREAKTHRU TO ENABLE HUMAN LIFE IN SPACE: PHOTOSYNTHESIS MIMICKED WITHOUT PLANTS

Source: NASA & Stock

Scientists have developed a breakthrough photosynthesis process that will enable humans to live and breathe on Mars and elsewhere in space. The scientists say the process can complement life support systems in space habitats. Here's what we know:
Fundamentally the breakthrough process captures light and transforms it into useful chemicals just as plants do
Scientists behind the breakthrough are from the European Space Agency (ESA), University of Warwick (UK) and the Georgia Institute of Technology and it's part of their Humans on Mars initiative
The primary source of energy is from the Sun
Semiconductors are used to absorb energy much like chlorophyll in plants
The solar energy is then converted to hydrogen, oxygen and other molecules, depending on the semiconductor
The process will be tested onboard a rocket launched to the edges of space in late 2024 or 2025.
Bottom-line: the breakthrough enables human life and sustainability on other planets and the scientists add on Earth.
