- W2034995385 abstract "*† Metal-CO2 propulsion is less known than other Mars in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) technologies. This concept, based on using Martian carbon dioxide as an oxidizer in jet or rocket engines, offers the advantage of no chemical processing for CO2 and thus requires less power consumption than ISRU alternatives. In this paper, we review various aspects of metal-CO2 propulsion, such as combustion of magnesium and aluminum in CO2, engine types and characteristics, production of liquid CO2 and metal fuel on Mars, and potential missions. Lunar and terrestrial applications are also discussed. I. Introduction N-SITU Resource Utilization (ISRU) is recognized as an enabling technology for exploration of Mars, which can significantly reduce the mass, cost, and risk of robotic and human missions. The critical element in future missions is the large mass of propellant for a Mars ascent vehicle, while power and propellant to accommodate a long stay and mobility on Mars are also important. Transportation of propellant from Earth to Mars requires tremendous increase in the initial mass of hardware in low Earth orbit (and hence mission cost) as compared to prior no-return missions. Fortunately, Mars possesses resources that can be used for propellant production. The Martian atmosphere consisting of 95% CO2 is the obvious and most promising in-situ resource. I" @default.
